"untitled"

hearing only the echoes of your own thoughts
wide awake
sometimes you dream
with these eyes that don't see
laughing miserably
falling falling
deeply
losing sight of how much time has passed
in the despair you hum softly
waiting for that breath
that will make it all ok
tasting loneliness
unable to atone
the wound in your chest
still bleeding
becomes a tender scar
On the other side of the pain and darkness
confusion sets in sometimes
The crumbling temptation has a smiling face
Emptier still
you sway from side to side
muttering over and over
like a vague dream
laughing softly
The melody you hum engraves
then disappears
unable to forget
you gazed vacantly
The reality You still cannot change
The scars that remain on your outstretched arm
pile on each other
Because it hurts...
because you promised...
they make you feel uneasy
you fall as far as you can
As deeply as you can
waiting for that breath
that will make it all ok

These lines here struck me the hardest. Great work.

Wish I could find love.. But all I find these days are superficial fish in shallow waters.

thank you very much

I leave to walk ahead, only to be lost
Even though I cannot see the end, I think it's alright
I will leave on a journey at range, it's alright if i
