finding A Way

I want to feel something—anything at all,

From endless words to tears that fall,

Once a river that carried my pain,

Now silent waters, dry and plain.


The hardest battles, I’ve fought to the end,

Overcame, though it took all I could spend.

Yet here I stand, no tears to cry,

Numb in a world that’s passing by.


Two stars above, watch over me still,

Souls I cherish, though they feel distant, still.

Lives I’ve lost, angels I’ve known,

Yet no tears for them, though I’m not alone.


It’s as if I’m wrapped in hollowed walls,

A shadow that stumbles, trips, then falls.

Each day I wake to the same gray skies,

But no fire stirs behind these eyes.


I long for the storms that raged before,

The waves that crashed, the heart that soared.

Now I drift in an empty sea,

Searching for any part of me.
