The rain tapdances on my grave
Dark and dreary is the night
So sad and lonesome
Not silent, just hollow
The void calls to me
It sings a lullabye
To my poor spirit
We are old friends
And soulmates
This void and I
Both empty
We're one
Alone.

That tapdance is a sorry shuffle, made even worse when you know the steps by heart.  I would rather waltz anyday if the music would only play.  I felt the missed beats in this.

Excellent writing. I enjoyed the read even though it was so very sad.
