Light starts to leave
My eyes grow heavy with darkness
Space empty and dark 
Alone

Waves of sadness reach the shores of my mind and heart
Beautiful memories of things that could have been settle with pain
Desires hit a wall

Joy gets pulled out of my body
Energy fades as darkness grows 
Emptiness 

An ever consuming black hole requires the daily distractions of life
Too big to be true 
Too painful to look at

Expressions find words, find ways, find lives, find meanings 
No place for all
Struggle deep within

No safe home found, no true meaning, no true connection
What then to live for? 
What then to aim for? 
What then to do?

Maybe tomorrow
