LoST

something i wrote a couple years ago

Lost,

Have I wondered stray?

The piercing cold guilty in my thoughts,

Stirring my mind.

Should I pretend that love is no more as important

As the air that I breath.

The memories recede from my mind

The Rhythm disdains from my pulse.

Why must the loneliness creep over me every time you leave?

And the shadows you left staining my walls

As you watched me sleep,

Is never enough for me to feel you or taste you.

You are lost. Have you wondered away?

No longer am I sad.

Nor is there any happiness in these eyes that seek to weep.

No love in this heart that refuses to beat.

Where are you?

Why must I kneel before the darkness

And exist in servitude of nothing!

I fear I am nothing without you.

I fear that hope is another fall

Into the taming of my shattered emotions.

The symbols you have placed into the hollows of my broken heart

Only show me how far away the smell of happiness is.

The warmth of freedom lost along with you.

A gift, lost in the tides of selfish minds.

Where are you? Lost.
