Grief

No truth lies where love blooms,
everything dies and withers,
so I shall cross out my own life
for these tears won't release me.

I search not for beauty,
for it'll betray me the most,
my life I indolently forfeited
in the hope of overriding the guilt.

"I still love you all so much, I feel so conflicted, when will the day come? When will it finally come?"

I still remember your beautiful gestures,
I'm afraid of the day when none of it will hurt,
a time will come where my darkness 
finally envelops me in a grim light 
burning my shattered longings away.
