Poetry: A blank life

by Branwyn Kenney

Created on: March 20, 2010

What’s in a name
A face hidden in shame
Without any light
We give up the fight

Nothing will change
There’s just too much pain
Let’s forget all about it
Why do we doubt it

Nothing's the same
It went up in flames
I watch the sky cry
I see the world die

What’s in a name
When there is no more fame
Does the past even matter
When all our faith shatters

I know what you want
But hope is now gaunt
Just look all around
It doesn’t make a sound

When can you tell
Heaven from hell
How can you know
Please say it isn't so
