Shutdown

The only way for me to survive pain is to shut it all out. Any feeling or affection would only get in the way. If my love remains, the pain would be too great for me to bear. Better to be cold than in pain.

Alone

I reach for sheets
Alabaster and empty
My outstretched hand poised for hope
Towards a dark & quiet phone

Where art thou? My heart keeps wondering
Am I wholly forgotten?
Is it all in my head?
No answer came from the darkness that surround me
