Do I dare to utter a word?
That could turn into a storm
And would blow so very far
People would stare
Lovers would request
The reasons of my wretchedness
Fingers would eagerly point
At my grey withering hair
Rumors would start
Of the years that have passed me by
Thousands of wishes
Went past so very fast
Yet every wish took with it
A little bit of my heart
No relations are left alive
Just a simmering hope of light
That helps me live past this life
Life it seems is passing in harmony
With the pace dictated by time
Yet a void still remains within
Of the moments that are still alive
Acquaintances, friendships and relationships
They are latent within my heart
Yet there is this longing
Fervent within my eyes
Moments spent in laughter
Moments spent in joy
Why do I feel something missing?
From the compilation of my life
