With nothing

At the end of the day, we are on our own.
True love hides its face
And we are forever alone.

Nothing is ever real
All is but a misty dream
And I slip further into the underworld.

No one really knows
The secrets in our hearts
The truth is, neither do I.

Sometimes, sleep is sweeter than life
And I find myself,
Wallowing in my hollowness.

Where do I go,
The path uncertain,
Not with you, no not anymore.

You’ve walked me here,
To the finishing line
The sun has set and the cicadas chirp.

There is no one here
It is just me
Just me and the unknown world ahead.

Say goodbye, say all your goodbyes
Because we do not have tomorrow
Today is all we own.

We will never meet again
Me in my sorrows
A world you are not invited into.

It is just me
Since the beginning of time
I came alone, I shall leave alone.

What do I possess?
With nothing I came
With nothing I will go.

Sometimes you just wanna run away,
To a place where only the wind blows
And not a sound is made.
Solace, you will find in this place
A place to hide the tears.
I wish you would hold my hand
And watch the waves with me.
Because, just because
I am afraid.
Of what tomorrow brings.
Of todays that are unlived
And wasted.
I wish you were here,
To wipe away the tears
To tell me everything is going to be ok.
Whispers I hear,
Louder than the roar of a lion
Because, just because,
They speak the truth
I wish to deny.
Somehow I wish you were here
To cover my ears.
But I turn around,
And you are never there.
You are but a lingering shadow
That is never here
When the nights are long.
We don’t belong
You and I
On different corners of the world
You and I
We don’t belong
Forever, spinning out of each other’s sphere.

Why is crackling sound like music to the ears, I wonder...
The crackling sound of a fireplace and an old record...
