Forever
This emptiness inside me grows;
I await the day when my sorrows will cease
To exist.
As time plays with my memory,
I long to see your face again
Smiling at me—
Lifting my heart; giving me hope.
I cannot feel pain anymore;
My body grows numb with depression.
Deeper and deeper I sink;
I fear I will lose you
Forever.
