Lifeless

I have seen our love

on the cold damp floor

in the darkest of rooms

lying in a pool of blood

still as my broken heart

and I approached it

I knew...

softly ...a kiss

a pause

a tear

a touch

caress

still nothing

once a love shared

now abandoned

alone, dying

cold and grey

only hope

a wish, a dream

could find it again

and awaken

this lifeless mass

I weep sometimes

I lay myself at it's side

and wait...

time will pass

and so will I

waiting..

wanting

hoping. . .
