Alone

Lost souls crying out in the darkness for the slightest warmth from another's touch. An embrace like a flame, scorching the skin with the lustful burn of the night. Never letting the light to be extinguished, By those who would deny the beauty of its flickering flame. Holding hope for the home in someone. that was built in the chaos of the unknown. Watching the shadows contrast to the light moving around like the wind of the cold winters night. Holding on to the things you said like a treasure hidden away in my head. Wishing I could whisper all my secrets in your ear without judgement or fear. Problem is you are not here. I am alone hiding with the forgotten shadows on the wall. Realizing my heart is not mine at all.
