Fading into the vacant space of time I falter
Falling into the sunlit valley I wake
Tossing and turning in the night
Dreaming endlessly of naught
Fearing that final breath I run
Casting off my pride
Swimming through that awful stench
Wading across that tide
Waiting for you I wonder
Pondering that thought
Thinking about promises
Promising nothing more
Running I falter
Faltering I fall
Displacing replaced submissions
Submitting to darkness
Sleeping I lie awake
Staring in the night
Searching ever
For that thought.
