Madness
Leonard Castillo 1963 (Colorado)
Oh how we wander thru streets of empty dreams
Broken sorrows fill our endless walks
Desolate and madness dwell behind these eyes
Come see if you dare the inferno of lost LOVE
The lost emotions bring forth darkness
Underlying in the shadows of what was once
Safety
Overcome by thoughts of suicide and mayhem
Broken beyond destruction nothing resembles
A life of what was but now a void winding
Thru empty alley's and dreams forgotten
Nevermore to be sought after again
End of the road byways of decimated highways leading to the hell lived on
This place called home
Forgotten and forsaken walking never stopping
A dream of what was flashed before my eyes
Lost forever in the darkness of what has become the madness behind these eyes
