Hopeless Crusade

A summoning I’m trying to forget. There’s too much left between the ashes Life lingers far except with me My screams don’t seem to reach you The warmth it surged right through my essence Mine is not the same as yours I want to feel me, can’t you see me? It’s never like it was before. Your voice echoes through me As I go through life this way I hope you’re not watching me Fight this hopeless crusade. Smoke is drifting It reminds me of the fog Debris is lifting It reminds me that you’re gone. I remember the infirmary Giving their apologies I’m crying from the outside I’m locked in from the inside I can’t break free You’re not coming back to me Your life is missing And now I’m alone I’m reminiscing My heart beats like a stone. These clouds just never seem to part There’s not enough time to shield my soul It hurts just knowing your touch is gone Why can’t it be just like before?
