A Denial

Days spent on thinking
Then he sent the letter
Sleep deprived for days
His wait for an answer.

And finally when it came
Breaking his heart into a thousand pieces
His retreat became his room
The blank walls with their silent hisses.

All the lights are out
His spirit lay in darkness
The face fades away.
What's this sudden brightness

He wonders through the mist
His inner voices scream
He watches the bird's flight
He knows he'll never dream.

Darkness lay all around.
Endless sky,the hard ground.

He goes deeper and deeper
Into the bottomless hole
The shadows begin to fall
On his aimless soul.
