Listen,
I can hear it again.
The silence...
It stings.
The emptiness...
It bites.
And with my broken wings I try to fight.
But, it always ends with no avail.
I'm alone again,
Left contemplating against myself.
My thoughts come to attack me,
Like hounds of hell.
I always believe if I close my eyes it'll help,
But instead it shows me more darkness.
Where'd that dazzling light go?
I swear I saw it before.
It seems I don't remember,
I was smiling not long ago.
As the loneliness impales me
My fond remembrance of joy dissolves.
I want to hide,
But it's all around.
Even if I try,
I'll still be found.
I can't fool myself into thinking I feel fine,...
Even though I wish to,
I can't, not this time.
What if I welcome the sorrow in?
Will it show me a brightening grin?
Nay,
That would be in folly.
So, I'll stay this way,
In this trap.
Until my resurrecting light comes,
And shows me the way back.
