Agony

Upon reaching…I found no presence
Just the absence of the heart
That once stood strong within her
Now, lacks the beat of love and desire
She is there, but is silent
Her looks agonize the depths of me
Torment the longings that remain
Yet never get satisfied
I stand in this rain, but remain dry
I stand in the light of day, but in darkness
I stand alone seeking love
That will just never be
