Barren
Barren land this mindscape,
Forged by a troubled past,
Hope has had its share,
And despair now reigns supreme
This mind no longer cares,
Has long forgotten how to dream.
These grey forgotten islands,
Thoughts no longer pass.
Fires long stopped burning,
After scorching all the grass.
Endless barren landscape,
How much time has passed?
How far are you past caring?
Can’t you find your way back?
