somebody built this
made something
out of nothing
put their time
on the line
concentrated hard
kept monsters
at bay
tried to be
a good man
couldn’t always control
his emotions
that girl
at the bar
that moment
we are found
by the lost
somehow
and then it all
goes back in the box
ground zero
zero hero
clowns become angels
of death and hell
dreams drown
on delivery day
remind myself
that someone built this
made something
out of nothing
fed families
trusted doctors
believed in gods
imagined conversations
with girls in bars
locked eyes
with weeping kings
of pain
sat alone
abandoned
in montenegro
wondering how
they all
ended up here
looked for answers
in dying light bulbs
flickering for breath
listened to the sounds
of the undergrounds
that moment
when you feel it all
the moment of beauty
the moment of truth
the moment of hurt
all words become the same echo
of hope glimmering
of hunger burning
of love dancing
in memories
fading away
don’t go.
