My Lost Light
I'm screaming,
shouting your name
at this empty room
where all of those nights were shared.
I could never tell if the lights were off,
because with you here
it shined
and filled the room
with a light
that that shined so bright
i couldn't believe it.
I lost it now.
and i can't see anything
I'm surrounded by darkness.
My heart is black,
splattered with blue.
the color of numbness
fits me perfectly.
Through the dark,
i see a speck
of your familar light.
But dead inside,
i realize i can never reach it again.
