Looking through tainted windows
Peering through hopeless skies
Never stopping to remember
Why I felt the need to cry
I realize now I was mistaken
It was me that was to blame
For now though my faith is shaken
I know one thing stays the same
The world around me seems so broken
Darkness wrapped in bouts of flame
Have to sit around and wonder
Feels like such a crying shame
It’s crystal clear that I was lying
To myself and me and I
Friends and family still remember
Me before I lost my mind
Crossing paths with total strangers
Give me signs of wasted past
Now I know it’s time to wander
Walking down the wayward path
In the moment I accept the
Truth in light of what was done
Tied to ground that’s full of cracks and
Staring at the winter sun

A sense of hopelessness and darkness in this poem. It casts shadows. Nicely done
Thank you! I appreciate the kind words β€οΈβΊοΈ
Reflecting back and acknowledging past actions and mistakes, but currently not able to find a way out of the darkness, written and expressed very well
Definitely spot on with the tone of the poem!
