All Was Lost

A ripple in a pond was made
By the sound of your touch,
With a whisper from the wind
And the kisses from snow flakes
All was lost.

Lucid nights are found in dreams
And daft days are my reality,
Bound in bed by apathy
I'm kept awake by silent screams.

Not once did you falter
At the sight of tears,
And now you lay on the alter
Driven mad by your fears.

You choke on your tongue
Aware of what you've become,
By fostering a cruel, cold heart
You've sunken deep, deep into the dark,
All was lost.
