Click hereThe night is young
but I am not
nor am I getting any younger
The silence kills
masking the distance shrieks of laughter
while murdering my mind and my heart
A faucet drips
the rhythm agonizingly mundane
resonating with a sameness in my ears
The sameness stands
commanding my attention
consuming my mind
shredding my heart
enveloping me in darkness
as it tries to extinguish the light of hope
Yet there she stands
a beacon in the night
a voice of calm and reason
a vision of beauty and companionship
...yet I cannot reach her
...and I wonder if I ever will...
Living in hope ~ only to die in despair when love doesn't materialize.
