GONE

Pictures of you
Haunt me…
Smiling, frowning,
laughing,
They tell me
Stories of what was
Of desires, longings
lost and gone…
My eyes search yours
And always the same
questions
Torment my heart…
Why me? Why you?
Turmoil singe my inside…
I feel a prisoner
Banished to the
hellish gallows
Of lost dreams,
Trapped and damned
Tied to an eternal
wrack
I try to rise above
the
Heart wrenching pain…
Scrambling and
scratching
Up the walls of my
Damp and cold dungeon
Nails torn and
bleeding…
At times the light
above
Clears my sullied
vision
And I breathe easy
Hope seems not a
distant dream
I sit for endless
hours
Weaving fantasy and
reality
Into a fine bright
tapestry,
Intertwined with
motifs of love,
Laughter, bliss and
ecstasy…
My journey less
tiresome
Then that trigger
again…
A voice, a thought, a
memory,
A song, a smell…
Plunges me into my
hell
My hunger, my
longing, my desire
Like gadflies drive
me insane
As I scream and wail
With no respite in
sight
Why? I cry fruitless
tears,
Knowing there are no
answers
You are gone for
always
And so have I…
