I am rapidly falling
my soul bares the trauma.
Eyes seeing years
now reduced to a comma.
Faded I remain,
Left tarnished and jaded.
Emptiness echoes through
this soul long evaded.
Consuming the spaces
where dreams once did guide me.
I now pause, cry release
from this grip that confines me.
Memories now voiceless
lay fragrant in silence.
I grow tired of this
uncaring exposure.
I struggle to regain
once familiar composure.
Remaining suspended
between an illusion so hollow.
Tears are the only
company to follow.
I can only cry
as i now understand.... this journey
i've started, has claimed its demand.
