Mind Playing Tricks

Heart beating incessantly, hoping that I will again hear yours as you lie next to me. Yet, it is only my mind playing tricks on me, making me think I'm going insane. Not having anything to hold onto in life anymore, I cannot justify it, there's nothing to live for. Prayers continually going unanswered, candles burning out without any answers being arrived at. Desires still rise within, yet end up dying, because I no longer have you to help me fulfill them. Exercising futility in depths of being, lengthening shadows holding the portent of my spirit within them. Darkness breaking into the light of every day, covering over sunshine I used to see when with you, my love.
