Lost at Sea
My sisters ashes were scattered at sea today
I cry an ocean of tears
In my sadness there is no comfort
I am lost
Alone with only my own tears for company
No one cares in the end
Her best friend too fearful to stand up for her
To frightened to see the tubes and respirator
I think that my life has been a ruse
High ideals that make me the loser
All just head in the clouds ideals
And like the clouds they appear to have form
But on closer inspection they disappear
My life has been written in disappearing ink
No one will remember
No one will even care
I am numb
I am none
A big zero in the life number
Someday I will be adrift on sea foam green like my sister
No wings with which to take flight
All my fairy tale wishes will fail me in the end
No sacred God encircling me with Love
Just a cold indifferent Ocean
The black hole of eternity will engulf me
And extinguish the light within
Why?
Why not?
They were right.. the glass is half empty
Life sucks and then you die
In the darkness I reach
For even the finest strands of light
A glimmer of hope
Any sign.
A light to show me out of the darkness
I wait in hopelessness
