Shades Of My Heart (Black & Blue) Poem by Axley Jade Blaze

My mind is in fragments,
My cognizance feels scattered
My even keel has vanished
My wisdom has been shattered.

Every left turn;
Always so incredibly wrong.
Every step that was taken

The avenue to
Another Sad Lifespan Song

Choices and voices;
Like wails through the wind!
Then, a silence so stifling—
You could drop and hear a pin!

So, I run far away
From my awareness— I depart
I wanted to rewind it all
Or perhaps, to restart!

But, in fragments,
I'm shattered
And, inoperable
Left scattered—

Left desperate and desolate,
No longer with a clue
The riddle stains my heart
And it's forever black and blue.
