No Light
I have no light, but what you shine,
No voice, but that you give me.
I am held captive by a truth that is not mine,
Forever waiting for you to deceive me.
There's always something to regret,
A few mistakes of which you'll never know.
I've given you no reason as of yet,
Though, I still brace myself to watch you go.
There's no 'goodnight' for those who do not sleep,
No gentle whisper needed to awake them.
Only a longing which was never theirs to keep.
? hope which builds, simply to break them.
