Alone in the dark


The clock ticks
alone i sit in the dark
everything connected
to that one beat of the heart
as it narrates the stories
from where i've come
and now how far apart

Every breath i take
Recalls to the past
of a life
Flourish with bright days
now broken
hurting in so many ways

The silence of the room
carries the whispers of my heart
as it cries a river
my body trembles
but noone comes
to warm me, as i shiver

So why do i still expect
that knock on my door?
knowing the world has become so cruel
that it would rather walk over you
than to help you off the floor

Why?  Because in every bit of bad there was something good, and we crave that which never was.   Loved this!
