Ramblings

On my knees I shall offer up my breath

In praises for the lost souls drifting 'round

My grounded frame, who wait but for my death

To join them and wander in silent sound

Destined to ever roam these barren lands

Alongside ghosts of names with no faces;

Who laboured lives left their souls with scarred hands

Unable to reach earthly embraces

From those who mourn the chasm in their beds.

In agonized song, they pour out their pain

By weeping oceans of lover's regrets

In crashing waves, unable to refrain

From drowning til they see their own corpses

And know how lonely loneliness can be.

I close my eyes to take in the forces

Of the harmonized wails surrounding me

Filling the air with dissonant sadness.

My praises turn to match the mournful song

As I succumb to maddening madness

That I have harshly fought off for so long.

Until the day when all these tortured souls 

Reunite their broken hears once again,

The mooning, reverberating echoes

Will roar in chilling desolation

Unbeknownst to those who don't know the pain

Of tear soaked pillows under sunken cheeks.

Of the hollow ache that is the heart's bane

Or of sobbing sorrows for endless weeks

At pure white walls that have no ears

To calm the loneliness. The end waiting.

Hoping for a light that never appears;

Destined to this sad world of self hating

And here I sit; broken, naive, breathing.

Seeing, hearing, feeling, smelling, tasting

The confusion with its ever reaching

Grasp on the dull hearts of people wasting

Away. My praises now but a dry croak

From a parched and uncertain throat.

Shattered, My eyes are all that have not broke

And I can see that pain was all I wrote.
