Lonely, Wandering, Watching,
Yearning for the warmth of a smile,
isolated from dreams,
they wander aimlessly among nothing,
searching for an unseen light,
going the only direction possible,
                                               Forward,
Cloaked in the black of sorrow,
an unforgiving glance freezes the soul,
they yearn for friendship
           but are scared of the light,
drifting through time,
                              they go,
wanting
      wishing for more,
like a bee
     they follow the wind
like tears of tomorrow
     they shift unseen
            moving without motion
they scatter at a flicker,
      they twitch at a spark,
they move
      but are motionless,
they see
      but yet are blind,
they hear
      but never learn,
they smell
      but never recognize,
they taste
      but never satisfy.
They wander aimlessly among nothing,
     darkness swallows its prey whole.
