I am neither here nor there
I come and go like the seasons
Spouts of emptiness spread
like an incurable disease
taking over every part of me
Filling me with a bitter chill
And no flame, no matter how potent
Can quench this frostbitten hole
that has made my heart it's home
It begins with an image
A faint memory of a time I smiled
A time when an exhaled breath
meant careless days
A time when words
were smothered in truth
A moment when everything felt like it should
When life was falling into place
And finding its way through the muck
