I sat there, Thinking about the simple And the impossible. Why am I still fighting? Why am I still standing? Why am I still alive? This is all seems to unreal to me, Just a shattered reality, Nothing seems real to me anymore. My memories are fading, My dreams are breaking, Everything seems... empty. For years, I have been fighting, But after all those years, Only one thing came out in the end. Emptiness.
Last minute, That one light bulb was flickering, On and off. I thought it had burnt out, But it was just flickering, On and off. As I reached for the light, A sudden sharp pain in my chest grew, And everything went black. Everything but you. You still glowed, shined even. I saw nothing but you. In all of the emptiness, You were still there, Shining bright as ever. Then it clicked me. I know why I'm still fighting. I know why I'm still standing. I know why I'm still alive. I know why I felt so empty all those years. Can you... Can you fill this empty hole in my chest? I think you can. I know you can.
This is a very old poem I wrote long ago. Just didn't get the chance to post it until now!
