Empty

B. Frost

A chill to cool the fire that burns
The tides between twist as they turn
 
A fix to taste a needle to nerve
Conscious absence at every curve
 
Blue to gray darker to black
A loss in value to the top of the stack 
 
The palate to quench the thirst for the cure
The grip from its fingertips a bruised allure
 
A feeling ensues at a point in time
Lost in luster two nickels in a dime
 
Deep in the silence the depths of alone
A hint of guilt within the groan 
 
A snap at the bend the sound heard before 
Escape to the warmth the comfort to score 
 
Darkened eyes a soul to dispose 
A broken balance the lens can disclose 
 
An anguished being left to repent
Tangled and twisted in the spiraling descent 
 
A life in battle fighting the enemy 
Lessons paid in full in the glass that’s half empty

    There's always hope.

    Absolutely perfect and thank you for the early morning smile! I believe that whole heartedly.
