for you

somberabyss

blood stained hands

from touching your heart

trying to jumpstart a pulse

where there is none. 

 

devoid of emotion

like a rock made of steel

like a river without motion

why must you not feel?

 

why must you be afraid

to be anything at all,

why must you run away

from love when it calls?

 

for you

why did i ever fall?

for you

i have done it all.
