Eternity

I keep seeking the one thing I want

Eternity

With you

In my words, silences, thoughts, dreams

Something you can’t give

Won’t give

The difference has ceased to matter

.

Now there is only isolation

The empty question hammered into my mind, my eyes

Haunting every moment

A question you won’t answer, can’t answer

An answer we both know

and see clearly

the inevitability of a future I do not wish to live

.

In my world of dried-up tears and silent screams

I live alone

My world of guilt and righteous anger

I live alone

My world of crumbled dreams and crushed hopes

I live alone

In MY world

I live alone
