Are You
All alone,
cigarette burns away,
tv kills the silence,
as night turns into day,
now I know,
this pain wont go away,
hate the way it makes me feel,
carnt show, carnt tell or say,
are you feeling it too,
hardly breathing,
are you seeing it too,
how hard its beating,
are you hearing it too,
sounds deceiving,
do you fear it too,
your heart from breaking,
alone with you,
tremors glisten with sweat,
capable of poisoning futile minds,
how two broken hearts met,
a vodka later,
ashtray full to the brim
gave it all up for you, my profession,
my vices, my whole being,
all alone,
candle carves a shadow,
elongated body,
full of sadness and sorrow,
rested on the mantle,
a bust of a welsh poet i adore,
plagued by his genius,
crumpled paper on the floor....
