I have never felt lonelier
I have never felt so lost
I have never felt so empty
In a world and in a place and in a time
Where feelings are not as rich as how
One would express them as back in the past,
And a part of me so desperately wants
To drain my soul till there's none
But what use is there to have tears running down
When the past and present and future
Can not and will never be changed
By some mere girl sobbing in despair,
Wishing for her lover
To finally write back
Oh,
I have tried to bury it deep
And deeper and deeper till there's nought
But why,
Oh why,
Must you be engraved within me?
For
Your face
Your touch
Your scent
And even the way you laugh,
Has become music to my ears
Which not even a nightingale can mirror
To ease this burning desire
Felt from within my hollow heart
Oh,
Perhaps this is eternal punishment
For everything I've done wrong in the past
And perhaps this burden was meant
To be carried to my deathbed
When my face is of aged and my hair is of gray,
With your once hidden
Yellow-stained letters clasped
To the left of my chest
Intertwined with all the coldness
And stillness and sadness,
Intertwined with the longing of something,
An undying intensity of so desperately wanting
To catch a glimpse of you
Just once more
