Reality Poem by Rene Bennett

Walking in shadows
fate follows me
I often wonder
how this got to be.

My soul has stopped screaming
my heart does not feel
rotating seasons
never seem real.

Dreams of a life time
tears in the sky
Confusion engulfs me
but I still can not cry.

Visions of sorrow
eclipse in the rain
alone with my thought
yet, numb to the pain.

Yesterday is a memory
and tomorrow is near
come the next day
I'll still be right here.

No footprints to follow
no escaping this time
the reality which echo's
deep in my mind
