Thoughts running through my head,
No one there to listen.
No one to hear the words;
No one to sit with.

There's nothing in darkness,
Nothing to be seen.
The light which showed the way,
Is now extinguished and forgotten.

The difficulty of compassion;
The burnt out dreams of hope.
The disappearing light
Receding across an ever-darkening sky.

Left for dead,
Lying in the emptiness.
A deflated heart,
Alone and cold.

Intermixed with the sorrow
Lies confusion and loneliness.
In between the sadness and pity
Lies a crying, forgotten soul.

The words said in passing,
The emotions suppressed.
The feeling is everlasting,
The tears hidden from view.

Disappearing beauty,
Hidden behind the eyes.
The cold glare shines
Through the darkness.

Its quiet serenity hints
At a twisted mentality.
Its lost stare suggests
Something hidden.

The dark secret
Which tugs and twists
The lonely and forgotten heart
Into a cold and dismal thing.

The loss of stability,
The eternal confusion.
The never-ending sadness,
Which breaks the soul into pieces.

Looking through the window,
Everything outside seems so simple,
So innocent; such an easy way of life.
But it isn't until I step outside
That I see the pain, the sadness,
And the hatred that causes it all.
As seconds pass, and the world rots,
My heart absorbs the coldness
Which has swallowed up the Earth.
There is no hope; nothing left to hold onto.
I turn to go back inside,
But the door is locked,
And I am forever held in this world of despair.
