Deep Within The Void
As I sit here
Back within the abyss of my senses
To think things over
Heat of the moment
Leaving flames upon my cheeks
Alone
With only my deepest thoughts
Thoughts of wasted days and nights
Anxious to do something positive
Arranging books and note pads
Sharpening pencils several times
For many days now
I had been gathering a few thoughts
But had been waiting
For the right moment
To pen them down
I did not sleep much the nights before
My thoughts went to places
So very far from here
As I thought about many things
Most of the time it was about you
And every time
The moon was growing pale
With a feint light in the east
Even then my thoughts were deep
But when the sun
Started to show face each day
Still wide awake
The smile just died
And only left
A small choking sound
Deep within the void
