Lacking

"All I need, is that which I cannot find,
All that I desire, is laid out in front of me"

Life passes me by
As I wait
For all that I lack
To be found

But inside me I know
That it is me who must find
What it is that I need
That it cannot be delivered to me

Yet I stand and wait
Unable to stand on my own
Becuase I have not done so before
And my world stands still

As each day passes
I can feel myself fading
Losing myself to the darkness
That clouds my heart

The love in me is lost
The light, turned dark
Because of what I do not have
Because my hope is lost

My will to live is fading
My life means nothing to me now
I wait for the final release
But even that, I cannot find

The pain inside me grows
Until no longer can I stand it
I could wait no longer
For someone else to bring what I lacked

All that I once desired
Became nothing to me
And my need for an end faded with it
Until I no longer craved death

I found myself on the day
That I found my will to live
And on that day I found
The love that I had craved

Author notes

Okay, so it reeks. But I honestly expected worse, considering the fact that I haven't written anything new for the past few......months maybe...... Yeah, probably months. So no complaining. Be proud that I actually wrote something!

Please tell me what you think

    Very good!! I'm not complaining whatsoever. I quite like this-- I can see where you are coming from when you wrote this.... Keep up the good work.... Morning Sun. Oh, and that's a awesome quote. Where did you get it from?



    Rock on--
