Anxiety washes over me, As I tried to open my heart. Blurting out vague messages, Laying my feelings bare, Insanity flows through me. Vicious thoughts consume me. Gambling my heart out, I try to fall in love once more. And you reminded me, Amidst my rose colored eyes, I was really destined to be alone. Reality woke my tired soul. Loneliness is indeed my own.
Alone in this barren field, Anchored deep in the sea, Beached on a deserted island, Left out in the winter cold, Incapacitated and left longing, Voracious vultures are waiting, Gangrene eating me alive, Intoxicated by hope and love, Abhorring every second passing, Alienating this deep void, Insufferably waiting for you, Running in circles in my mind, Leaving reality behind once more.
Answer me! Admonish me! Betray me! Leave me! Invalidate me! Vilify me! Gouge my heart out! Ignite my soul! Agony sets in… Amorphous images… Illuminate me! Read my heart. Love me, please.
Impending doom looms, My heart won’t beat. Silence takes over me. Our time comes to a close. Riveting emotions settle. Regaining my composure, You smiled at me.
