Lost in my own mind,
withdrawn from the world,
thinking about who I was..
wondering what I've become...
I can't find my way home,
far from me, in the darkness.
So i wearily trudge ahead,
my destination still dim.
Wandering the dark streets,
absorbed in my thoughts..
finding the pieces of my shattered heart,
but losing my grip on my soul.
Eternal night in my mind.
The sun shall never touch my skin.
Her sister moon my new best friend,
casting eerie shadows on my path.
The pieces hide in the fog,
but she illuminates my pale face,
no pumping blood to color it,
no warmth in my bones.
I watch the outside world
through my own unfamilliar eyes..
so much love out there..
so much warmth..
They come to me in their pain.
My body holds them as they cry.
I watch them as they heal,
so warm..and full of life.
I reach out in my pain.
Friends surround my being..
those ones that love it..
They hold me as my body cries.
Why am I still so cold?
