Loves Darkness Whispers

By Sophia Bishop

I find myself lost alone in your gaze

Screaming out for you but I'm alone in this maze

Cut me open let bleed from within

Tell me you love me and let this story begin.

There is an emptiness inside of my heart,

It cries, it weeps, it bleeds. We are apart.

Could there be more to this life than a never ending love,

Is love a plague, a pain, a punishment from above.

Will there come a time I hear its enough,

Will that be the truth or just another bluff.

I don't know, the answers they are not mine,

I am lost within your gaze until the end of time.

Can you hear my whispers from within the dark,

Does it echo through the night like a lost dogs bark.

When the time comes, is my heart safe with you,

Or are you the darkness that I never really knew.

I don't have the answers to the questions of life,

I don't know how to stop those words that cut like a knife.

Will you share with me a glass of rum,

Will you dance with me to the soundless drum.

I don't know anymore, whether this life is real,

And so I will make with you, a pact, a deal.

I will hear your whispers, your cries, that echo in time,

I will hear your plea's. I will answer. For really...they are mine.
