-Abandoned-

Abandoned by family and so called friends...What have I done, this Fate? Loyalty repaid, undermined in what's Faith, for only myself to blame. Lost, so young, in a world so small, never to be whole again. Knowing at once, in a nanoseconds mind, lay a Purgatoried future defined. What had I done so young? So many betrayals submerged in this hold, for numbed feelings lessen the hurt. As The Man once sang so many lives ago, "Rust Never Sleeps," to my nights. And as time steals away this strongest of arks, what seeps does find its way. As a current will slay the least path of resistance, this hold has an appointed decay. Comes the effluence stream, so confluence bound with flow towards a heart's candled flame.  

One flicker remains to this light of lost Hope. Alas, Fate's cruel wanton remains.
