Winter Comes

The sun drops out of the Western sky.
Oranges, yellows, and reds fade as gray consumes the skyline.
The bitter night approaches as lighting dances across the sky.
Puddles form in the dimples of the beaten earth.
Rain boots clump against the pavement carefully avoiding muddy water spots.
Sadness reaches across the faces of the broken.
Streetlights twinkle as dark souls dance around them in the bitter cold.
Winter approaches swiftly overtaking the burrows.
Hearts melt under the frost of morning.
All is silent... all is lost.

Drug induced Coma

The walls melt like blood spills from an open wound.
The mind overcomes the urge of pain.
Altering perception.
Loss of body control.
Dreamless sleep.
Trapped inside a secluded, dark room.
Screams are silenced.
The record player crackles...
Alone with your thoughts.
Mind racing.
Numb.
Lying awake on the floor convulsing.
Inches from death.
Eyelids heavy, never to re-open.
