The Broken Umbrella

a soft white sheet of luminescence
striped with bold black patterns of mirth.
cords of steel that shine bright and new
and springs that love them all.

A torn sheet, the black, now grey.
rusting away heedlessly

twisted and turned, inside out.
nobody cares what happened to you
mangled remnants of a colourful past.
and a song of glory, unsung.

Heartbreak hotel

Does it come with a warning? Or does it sound as brittle as the shattering of glass? Does it taste like despair on your tongue- ashen, dry and unpleasant? Or does it leave an aftertaste, bitter and nauseous? It's one thing to call yourself a beacon of strength and another to shed silent tears when no one's looking A failed attempt, and some more, and hope is washed away like by the tides of time. Corroding the light and heaping in darkness. A car Crash, a death, a black dress and mourning. is there going to be some light at the end of this tunnel?
