Gates of iron close with a resounding clang.
What was once vibrant
now lies cold and lifeless.
Memories of laughter echo through cooridors
of a hollow heart while
gray replaces rainbows and
questions replace answers.
Life is no longer a playground,
but a prison.
The blackened night acknowledges only.
the harsh realities
as gates of iron close with a
resounding clang.
