Mazy

as if it were yesterday
it rears it's ugly head
wailing its' agony
into the peaceful night sky
a smattering of stars
watch silently..in awe
as the pain threatens to break
almost in unison
the wind howls through the trees
screaming of its' torture
until your head is filled
the most heart wrenching
to undo you like that
to confuse you like that
and maybe somehow, somewhere
its' savior will arrive
it maybe could be you
maybe you could calm its' torment
soothe it's angered soul
as though it were washed up
on this peaceful shore
you could be the hero
you could be, forever lost
