Last Day of October

The morning chill is to the point, it feels like grieving
Rain or drizzle, with the cold is penetrating my being
All my memories, the loved gone, all sacred shadows
A day with no light, only mist, cloud, I feel so hollow
My ghosts try to speak but cannot be heard, only seen
I'm screaming soundlessly, begging to just dream
I shiver in the chill of mourning, then black out
We should have rules but can't see what's it about
Given a birth, suffer, find little joy, and lose it?
What's our purpose and how have we failed
Or have we somehow won, and missed it
Maybe spoken in a unknown language
Born in a new age, a new ideal
Or lost in the chaos
I don't know
