I am wearied and numb
an extinguished spirit
wilted petals of a rose
trying to cling to its stem
One slender movement
and death steals more
Yet here I remain
left unattended
Thirsting
Yearning
Moisten my lips
breathe into me
replenish my essence
summon my soul
Departed by affliction
neglecting a lovers plea
Yet here I remain
left unattended.
