One, Two, Three, Gone
May 19, 2014
One, Two, Three, One
Memories turned to mere gusts of air
Cradling burdens and crushing fears
Close my eyes and breathe, shutting out the pain
One, Two, Three, Two
Don’t remember, don’t forget, the presence of a soul
Blackness fills the senses… gone, gone
Always said it would be there, now it’s lost
One, Two, Three, Three
Tears choke out the feeling
Words have lost effect on the vast numbness
No one’s there anymore, and no one will be
