Ache

One by one I see them slip away,
left with helplessness,
and memories of what once was,
struggling to find a way,
as my heart bleeds...
the final goodbyes,
cut me open,
with a thousand whys;
this insanity I'm trying to defeat,
clouded with chaos, I seek refuge,
just to be told I've been sick forever,
having the ground move beneath my feet,
haunting fears taking over me,
I lay alone...
thinking of the hereafter,
crippled and broken,
the reality has awoken,
I will ache from the bone to the soul...
forever.
