Topics: Poetry Source: AllPoetry Original source

I stand at the end of the world overlooking the city of ages. Paper dolls continue their struggles, fighting against unseen enemies, while I smile at the futility of it all. My lips are cracked and bleeding-- my smile only a grimace of pain-- portraying my true feelings to that shadow of a world below. I dream of days where gods once stood and fields free of blood-- what ever happened to those years where freedom flourished and death was not thought of as friend...? The puppets thirst for attention dancing to silent rhythms; endlessly toiling away the years as they wait for their final judgement-- willingly giving up their place in the world even for just one moment of rest as they plummet into oblivion...
