In the vast abyss of darkness
Spark of light so bright
It blinds you in the night
Stars are sparkling their uniqueness
Cimmerian princess is introvertly hiding
Her aphotic thoughts plaguing
The demons are back & playing
Atrophy has set in from apathy
Lest we admit the tragedy
Of her lover over to the other side
Darkened room can hide her gloom
That intense ache
Like a stake pierced her heart
Bleeding entwined with the tears
Her eyes riveted to the light
Can't tear apart
Depression has suffocated
Made breathing an arduous task
It's so much easier to smile
And hide behind this porcelain mask
Desire to want to feel that love again
At quiet times she thinks she hears
His baritone whisper
Reaching and squeezing her heart
To beat the heavy pounding start
Recovery of the lover lost
That hopeful glimmer
That faint touch
Coolness caresses her cheek
Tear streaked
A smile creeps across her lips
Lifting her hand to her face
Her fingertips feels the wetness
As she struggles to wipe away
All remnants of tears
Longing to feel his embrace
Just one more time
But what a crime
When one is dead
The living continue in their catatonic dread
Wishing upon wish
To feel the love reach out and touch her head
feel lips on lips just one last kiss
That final bliss
