"he who has a why,

Can endure almost any how"- Nietzsche.

 

I long.

 

I long so bad that I can't sleep.

 

I long so bad that I forget how to speak.

 

I long so bad that my heart aches with an unbearable agony.

 

I long so bad I forget to eat.

 

I long so bad, I forget to rest or get tired.

 

I long so bad that I've become more robot than man at times.

 

I long so bad, that it's become the only thing I care about in this world.

 

And all I long for is love.

 

For someone to be able to ache for.

 

For someone to be able to live and breath for.

 

Someone I need to stay alive for.

 

And for someone who longs for me just like I long for them.

 

My longing is like a burning star,

Endlessly radiating and destroying itself.

 

And the thing I long for feels like the darkness my flames chases away at times.

 

But I will still long even if the thing I long for is truly the cold I burn away with my longing.

 

HE.

WILL.

ALWAYS.

CONTINUE.

SMOLDERING.
