Mist blankets the view of this grayed world,
as clouds lay siege to another starlit night.
Trying to grasp a memory with a single hand
held out far too long to find a meaning,
now meaningless,
as it all slips away from slicked fingers.
Tears bear down upon thy cheek,
unbeknownst whether they be my own,
or a gift from the world to one who's forgotten
how to shed them.
Why do we suffer emotions not understood?
The mind lingers, the body does not move,
the heart weeps for coldness of self-isolation.
Fate is not understood by those who carry it,
Yet even so the streetlamp flickers below..
