Farewell Child

A desert sky
Shows deserted dreams
Outbursts of passion
Startled by screams

Glance back at the past
What drove you insane
Apathy gained your trust
And in came the pain

Your halo and horns
Your crown of thorns
Purest of hearts
A child unborn

Aggression driven
By fear alone
Sins unforgiven
Condemnd your soul

Silently awaiting
God's every command
He left behind nothing
But crutches to man

Hind sight
To filter what you see
Black nights
To cloak dishonesty
Free will
To challenge the decay
Little white pills
To control what you say
