Silent Decay

What do you call it Mastery disguised as awkward Defiance wrapped in a silent blanket Soaked with gasoline It seems the world has need for a trail And it burns within his eyes To find truth within the tangle of lies Sometimes the charcoal colored sky Wrought with mankind’s pain Gives way to spectacular sun […]
