As the darkness sets
And the mist rises
My eyes shift to the image of you

My soul creeps to find peace
How should I tell it
that its peering
In a bloodied place

I detach my eyes
From your distorted image
Fragments of you
fading elsewhere

Stop scrutinising
Nothing can be found
Nothing but the nothingness itself


The day feels heavy today
My shoulders and knees weak
Maybe closing my eyelids would be of aid

I feel alone
Again

Why am I not enough to help myself?
Cant I be enough?
Oh why do I rely on you?

With a mind dense with fog
Thoughts carelessly thrown around
I know not what to do

Im a standby in my own brain

Hear me now
Let me say this once
I dare not repeat these words
I fear they might be wrong tomorrow

Nothing I fear could compare to you
However Im stuck here
I'm free, not a tree
Legs are made to move on
So that is what i'll do

I could never forget you
You'll always have a room in my mind
But I need to know how to shut that door
And not, let you take control

What a bittersweet time it was
I want it to end.
Now.
I.E. ~ No longer feeling any affection for someone you once loved

You've been missing from me
Sweet melody
Your image intangible
Yet a lighthouse for a soul

— The End —
