Agony

Agony

A Poem by Phillip J Clayton

A rising sun to restore the old,
unaffected by the hell I've made.

The straight line fading,
these demons won't die,
I bite my tongue, so I won't lie.

I'm to blame,
but there's no shame left here,
I feel the same!

Throwing stones at glass windows,
flesh and bone, wasted pieces.

Quiet words take me away,
to hallow hallways,
I will fail you always.

Just another memory,
lost in time, neverending.

Agony, my friend.
