~lost in the dark~

   
   
awash in melancholy colors    
painted deep hues of blue    
my nude body in fetal form curls    
   
*    
   
i've lost my soul    
somewhere in the vast dark    
the markers home tombstones    
   
where vultures perch    
tearing at my flesh    
as search I for the right path    
 
*   
 
I'm led to the abyss    
where i've vomited my thoughts    
there little pieces of me float    
   
I pick through the mire    
collecting the broken bones of me    
my skeletal being in there lies    
   
*    
   
hollow eye sockets    
have witnessed my slow demise    
decrepit and despicable    
   
retracing my steps    
sanctuary sought    
for a voided voice    
 
*   
 
alone in the dark
