Mourning Time

Have you even wondered where hope goes to die

Have you spent your whole life just wanting to cry

 

What does it mean to you when things shatter

A million of pieces left for you to gather

 

What happens when you're up but you feel so low

What happens when you're running with nowhere to go

 

Will anyone see the butterfly

While the eagle is standing by

 

Will the moon cry with the wolf

Or, is it an empty circle that will always be aloof

 

An icy eye

That can't help but stare

But, does not pass without one last glare

It's rage and hate that let out a sigh

Not forgiveness and calm that would have never said goodbye

 

I see the rose with no color

The bird that has forgotten its song

A plane with no pilot

Words without a tongue

And actions that can never be undone

 

Has hope forgotten to stop here

 

What does it matter

The wolf will continue its path without sheading a tear

Great imagery

lines fifteen through twenty are fantastic in their imagery, and it comes full circle to a big finish. Where does hope go to die?
