I have outlasted all desire<br /> My dreams and I have grown apart<br /> My grief is left entire<br /> The gleanings of an empty heart<br /> <br /> The storms of ruthless desperation<br /> Have struck my flowery gnarland numb <br /> I live in lonely desperation <br /> And wonder when my end will come
