A stirring glance, a lingering caress, the tender kiss
A sliver of hope, a whiff of madness, the whispered promise
A glimmer of a chance…
A swirl of memories, a puff of smoke, the reek of insanity
A yellowed page, burnt around the edges, the harsh reality
A dilapidated lifetime….
Shards of feelings, broken promises, the brilliant lies
A knick here, a scratch there, and the redness
A bleeding heart…
Bleeding…seeping…helpless with pain
Searching…aching… crawling in vain
And then the surreptitious friend beckons
Restless no more, enveloped in white, lulled into silence
Silence of the heart, the mind and the soul.
Numbed by the nothingness,
I am peaceful at last.
