Search for all things

i seek for nothing

i feel nothing

all that there was

was gone

all that there are

will replace

yet emptiness returns

i seek once again

with more knowledge

i feel around

all that had been

had left

all that will be

becomes void

i dare seek no more

Strange

we live in a strange world

that is,

we leave our trails

the path we trod

we turned our backs

the steps we took

the footprints showed clear

the directions we headed

yet,

our hearts ached

the time passed

our minds slurred

the decisions made

we all live strange ways

that is,

we lose ourselves

the past we created

we gather ourselves

the future we feared

we remind ourselves

the present we live

yet never,

did we ever stop

neither did we forget

never did we actually

live

except strangely

that is.

Loneliness

there it was

lurking in morbid splendor

unrecognised

it was always there

like the oceans

where the rain fell

like the sands

when the wind blew

it had been there

like the twinkling in dark skies
