The Mournful
In the realm of memories
Sit and reminisce
Of the better days
Picking through the black cables
Of remembrance
And through the sickly green quagmire
Of all things lost
With a six inch sheet of metal
That whispers in their ear
Of the worth of all they
Hold dear
Going insane
From the pictorial realms
Randomly generated
That keeps them addicted
To fuzzy sweet nostalgia
Of days in the park
Of fanfare long gone
Each realm
Jolts the pain
Jump starting the
Emptiness in their souls
But they are so addicted
To the bliss
Of friends gone forever
Of memories left in
The nuclear quagmire
Made from human tears
The greedily sucks in
The wealth of the world
Everything that meant anything
And we try so hard
To ignore it
To keep a clean black and white line
But memory haunts our dreams
And the forgotten beg for our pathos
But they lie forgotten
Even though the mournful reach towards them
Trapped in the Shadowlands
But all is lost
In a old grave yard
With head stone long grown by weeds
And the tears of some child who doesn't know why they cry
