Branches tap the thin glass like fingers,
Night air makes the old home shake and groan,
The lonely feeling on your skin that lingers,
A kingdom with an empty throne,

Unsaid words fill our throats,
As emotions dance behind locked eyes,
Overflowing as we choke,
Too many missed goodbyes,

Emptiness in the veins,
Coursing through like bitter poison,
Empty words and lies in the brains,
The fire out for no clear reason,

It falls down… Down…. Down…
Through the darkness of the night,
We smile away the fear and frown,
Emotions that we no longer have in sight,

Fear like woods that seem too dense to explore,
Like plants in our lungs, suffocating,
Muffled sobs leave our lungs so sore,
The pain inside is captivating,

The light fades behind the horizon,
The darkness that fuels our fears,
A sun that may never brighten,
A storm that may last many years.
