Hurting

All I see is darkness,
There is no light,
Just madness,
No delight,
Fractured soul,
Heart no longer whole,
Bleeding,
Gaping,
Hope leaking,
Love dying,
Coals growing cold,
No longer bold,
Choosing to stay hidden,
Loneliness unbidden,
Over the search,
Remain here on the perch,
Sit as it all passes by,
No more tears to cry,
Shadow left,
Happiness bereft,
Waiting for the end of my song,
To travel,
A new place to belong,
To watch them unravel,
Eternally free,
To roam for eternity,
Twilight's welcoming glow,
Resting after the show,
All left behind,
Fading memory in the mind,
Regrets rescind,
Dust returning to the wind.
