This hope A cold burning A flame made of shadow Fueled by need and fueled by desir… Goes out

Are you eating enough? Are you staying hydrated? Are you loving yourself? Or is your breath left bated? Are you sleeping enough?

You were the light of my life So tell me why You decided to burn it to cinders And leave me in darkness

With words left unspoken These promises broken Are washed away by These emotions awoken Forgive the sinner

Adrift in the abyss Dappled with distant lights Imagination connects the dots To make sense of this predicament I was anchored on the satellite

People always say, “These feelings will fade away” Which ones, love or pain?

Because you brighten my day Even when the sun’s shining When I’m feeling down & fret You’re my silver lining Your warmth is like a buffet

Do not assume these words of hurt Are directed at you I have bared to you my heart and s… Yet our words remained withheld Do not assume these words of pain

I see you Stars have gone from your eyes int… The warmth of the sun feels so fam… In the drops of rain I can hear y… Letting my tears blend with each d…

I mourn not for what we had, I mourn for a future lost. A foundation laid of promises, Promises that now seem so easily b… I cry not for this loneliness,

This noose of hope Around my neck A memory rope Myself I wreck I cannot leave

I wish that these words No longer reflect my pain But my devotion

As I step forward I look back for one last time I wish you all the best
