“Dampening Embers of Hope.”

There’s not a minute that
goes by that I don’t feel torn
apart by the missing of you
The reasoning matters not
I knew it was all real
And I know you feel
it now the same as I
And the thrashing of my soul
over that you choose to stay
away shreds me by the second
Left with dampening embers of hope
Hanging my head with my soul on a cross
Dangling and dying while trying
to live a life that I don’t know how.
