Poetry: The state of my heart

by Toney Eugene

Created on: July 09, 2010

Lost

Confused, I walk down this dark hall
Vaguely familiar scars engraved on every single wall
Painful mourns and cries come out from every corner
The air filled with happiness that has come to wither
Teardrops are strewn across this lonely floor
Haunting memories try to break through a decrepit door
A flight of stairs leads to nothing but emptiness
And spirals down into a bleak darkness
As I walk further down I realize that I somehow know this place
That’s when a wave of shock clung tightly to my face
I was looking within myself, which is quickly falling apart
It’s a sad feeling when you no longer know your own heart.
