finding everything

@Uootem

these dreams
    they haunt and scream
              at the ever changing shadows
                          which have replaced the light
                                              that I once saw in your eyes.

I stare blankly
    at the edified moon
                  and curse the darkness
                                        that exists between
                          the twinkling stars
            as I wait for one to fall
                  so that I can cast another wish
      into the cool midnight air
sometimes, i wonder why I still do this.

I lay still... yet still in awe
        hoping that I will somehow
                    find something hopeful
                                left in the smoldering ashes
              as the flame of our passion
        ceases to provide warmth
in this cold world.

but that's my destiny
        and i must accept it somehow
                            for it's coming to pass
                                                just as prophesied.

again I gaze into the emptiness
              that some consider the heavens
                                          but others know is hell
                            and single points shine
        in a darkened, but cloudless sky
                                      as my eyes search
                  forward, back and through
                                    as i look out into the future for you
            and pray that you're looking outwards too
and that you're wishing i was too.

looking at the way through
              and finding everything that
                              we never came to realize and
                  never came to share
                                cause i'm feeling so much stronger
                    and i can't seem to see
          that everything on the way through
is everything we can be.
