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.
