Mangled Spirit
You saw only tears
But it was my lifeblood
Spilling over onto the ground
As my heart lay shattered and dying
My soul fading and crumbling to dust
Now a faint ember of life
Flickers inside this shell
That was once alive and loving
This living death never ending
Never to waken from slumber
Is but a wishful dream
Each moment of time
Brings zombified movements
Blank stares from a mangled spirit
No one notices nor cares
About the living dead in their midst
As they scurry about
Taking what they can
