Through the night
Dreams elude me
Wide eyed, alert and sane
I stare into the heart of darkness
Waiting, inhaling
Exhaling, dying
She will return to me
I live colourless days
The sky lightless and pale
I envy the living
The star-crossed lovers
Of hope and life
Waiting, inhaling
Exhaling, dying
She will return to me
Lying here motionless
My eyes wide open
With a torn and naked heart
I long through the threshold of pain
I left open the gates of hate
Allowed emptiness to come in
Desperation weigh me down
Falling like an angel…
