Finality
Ample company, loneliness weighs
Spirit that existed, reduced to a shadow
Boisterous laughs that were, drown in nostalgia
Efforts to restore, succumb to depletion.
My heart is lost, can i end?
Thoughts rotate, only to stop
Sructure that flowed, a forgotten memory
Inking emotions, tears dried
Wishing a return, distance accumulates.
My heart is lost, can i end?
Speech begins, wary of slurs
Command exercised, relinquished through silence
Pronounciations natural, pronounced pride
Attempting freedom, conscious reprimands.
My heart is lost, can i end?
Steps occur, breaths strain
Will to wander, led astray
Aimless explorations, wonder enticed
Sighting paths, blurring avenues.
My heart is lost, can i end?
Appeals subtle, expressions elude
Releases unfiltered , shackled by insecurity
Portions share, layers shed
Necessity uncomprising, relentless avoidance.
My heart is lost, can i end?
