The only speck of light in the room -
A curtain I've never dared to open,
Bent slightly away, swaying against it's snowy backdrop.
The cold light leeched into my skin,
Freezing the gasps and grunts that plop from lips to the ground,
Shattering in ****** shards against my legs,
Reflecting my all too pathetic form.
I remember it all as I gaze into that open gap,
Feeling along the indentation in my throat.
A still night,
Surrounded by silence yet unable to hear it-
My ears are never quiet.
I can feel you emerging-
I guess it was an impossible task keeping you hidden.
You'll reach into my desperate affection and take all you can gather -
Before making off with my remaining reason.
Do you love me?
Something I know you could never answer,
If we were even to meet,
And you could somehow remember me.
But I still ask myself anyways,
Hoping one day I might be able to shut out your muted response.
