the distance between
more than just space
the regret of past years
seen upon my face
life lived on the fray
an observer looking in
a desperate want
to fill the void
the lonliness within
aching want of youth
replaced by complacency
mutuality gone
once a single beating heart
withered and faded
a sense of invisibility
words that were spoken
best left unsaid
a broken vow
or fractured promise
thoughts run through my head
darkness is the enemy
quiet of the night
wishing time would pass
and bring the renewing light
unsurmountable mountains
crumble with the dawn
bringing with it always
the strength to carry on
