How long can I watch the sun as it sets?
The white clouds help us believe
In the years together we’ve spent
Now they are slowly drifting apart
The rain they left in this shadow
The happiness that has went away

Now where has the breeze blown me to?
The lost faith I’ve gained over this extinguished fire
The spark that wasn’t lit
How long do I have to be gone away?
I don’t want to feel the pain
Of this lonely place they call “Shame”

This place I don’t feel like I belong
I can’t believe this is true
The heart I wanted to feel
Is it real?
How far away?
What’s the price of something this good?
How many times may I ask?
Is it real?
To me it’s everything I want to find
Everything is her heart
The heart that keeps me up praying ill find it one day
The heart that keeps me up late at night

this poem is so very sad.  That's all I can say about it.
