Abscess

lingering of indescribable feelings towards someone unknown
my single soul reaches out for companionship that cannot be found
then night has crept into the life that was so gay
these reminiscent feelings as if there were feelings to reminisce
trying to place emotion to face but in the end only shadows remain
the gossip is a heart that still feels for those in the past
those that are long gone towards paths that fates have prescribed
how false these claims made by those who only spin tale

these shivers and thoughts are ghosts of stories left to be continued
holes left in the journey, scripts that need to be filled, dialogue left unspoken
ultimately a wanderlust broken in pieces for a stable whole
these feelings of decrepit soles and audible inaction speaks slivers of mindless memories
a piecemeal of intertwined circular songs cut tangential to lives entangled
perhaps, just perhaps, these are unfinished dreams
played out not in reality but in fairytales

thus wakefulness compounds the desire for sleep
and sleep resolves the conflict of dreams
and dreams show the reality of life
wherein does the vicious cycle halt?
a deep slumber, never to awaken
so I dream lives of twists and turns
hoping that I too may one day sleep
