Still

You've stolen my heart infected my brain,    
driven me mad left me insane,  
Reached depths of my soul never seen again,    
Left me broken and empty never to be the same.    
    
I can no longer tell if it is pleasure or pain that inspires all the beauty I create in your name,    
You still are the spark igniting my soul aflame,    
But if I can't be close to you then my passion's in vain.    
   
The light in my world faded the color long since drained leaving me with nothing left to lose, but neither anything to gain.    
Though I've tried moving on I cannot break these chains,    
Trapped in my own prison bound by memories and pain, failed attempts at happiness and suffering ingrained.    
So here I sit dwelling in the dark with just myself to blame, the only comfort for me here is when I call out your name...
