Longing

A empty need gnawing inside of something half remembered now loss to me Grasping at memories slipping so far away once they were closer then they were mine Outside rain is falling barely wets the ground now it is too little and it is too late Bleak lies the landscape far as I can see washed out the colors faded like memories Long days spent waiting endlessly all the same one just like another more faded slipping away Somehow I am needing what I do not know empty I am waiting watching the gray sky
