Echoes of Silence
My heart has fallen into that dark
and lonely abyss once more.
A painful place were the only thing
that surrounds me is Solitude.
Is love out of reach.
will I never be held in her tender
embrace. Or feel her soft lips on
mine.
Must I forever be void of love that
I'v always seen between couple's
when they look into one another's
eyes.
Will I ever gain the trust, unity,
heart and hand of a woman who
loves me. Will I Be eternally held
within this prison of torment.
Will my only companion be
thoughts, those which plague me.
I try to believe, but all faith soon
withers.
So I follow a voice , the voice
of sadness. Now I stand not able
to rest my weary mind nor body.
I finally look out into nothingness.
Only to see what I am, was, and
always will be.
Then I scream...
But hear only echoes of silence.
