Alone

Absence does not make
Your heart grow fonder
It leaves you empty
You go mad from
The constant silence
Not even a whisper
To bring you solace
Trapped in solitude
You cry out for your love
But, they cannot be found
No beautiful words
To keep you alive
No warm embrace
To stimulate your senses
Your heart is slowly dying
Pieces of your soul disappear
One by one until nothing is left
All that remains is a huge void
That cannot be filled until you
Are reunited with your love again
