Etch

I love hope
wish i had some
hard to write words
with all the effort stopping my tears
nothing inspires
sadness slowly suffocates
unshared words
with your dead eyes
looking for salvation
at the touch of a key
loneliness hides beneath
the nothingness that shapes my being
and time smiles as it gives another second
in trade for more pain
