fauxcroft

Alone at night

Only the noises from the city

Punctuate the silence of this room

Broken, like the home I see around me

I struggle simply to breathe

I find myself on my knees

Dissolving gradually by degrees

In my broken home

With my broken spirit

The tears are all cried out

And I now just inhibit

A realm of misery and such despair

And it’s all because you’re no longer here.
