Thirsty

I never planned to be alone Floating through forever without connections I never thought I’d feel the cold Of lofty fleeting unmeaningful moments I never thought I’d feel adrift Speaking through dreams and whispers There’s no replies to my thoughts I never thought I’d miss her I was prepared for the night When her soul would depart and body lay bare My mind was strong and steady While my heart just withered and despaired Never did I want for a flicker I’d take anything she’d left for me, I know I’d grasp for the slightest semblance For I knew my heart would never let go I remember her vividly still My life is frozen in a moment of tears I just can’t let go Of the possibility that her soul still exist
