Black despair
Black wind screems desolation through my soul, The vanguard of Despair's un-holy might.... twin bolts flash relieving the darkness, in the desert of my mind my gaze lingers on the inner storm. Startled by thunder as it rumbles through me, Tears of desolation stalk me waiting for an unguarded moment to strike... Forced to watch as my inner world is destroyed into utter ruination..,. I look at the storm in the brief flashes of light the lightning brings, seeing the depth of it I quiver with fear and trepidation as the thunder peels across the shattered landscape of my heart.... The heavy hammer blow of despairs might as I feel myself shattering. I watch as my anger burst into a wildfire of rage from the storm of despair I fan the wildfire into a confligration of white hot rage flares of anger sweep across the devastation.. the destruction of my inner world engulfing even the core of me. Annealed in the fires of hate and rage I look around and see nothing so much as the past which preys upon my mind as the wolf does the deer.
