My heart is lonely, <br />Lost in my memories empty grasp, <br />Holding together my still breathing lungs, <br />As if they were locked tight together in a clasp, <br /> <br />My words <br />Once written, <br />Once spoken, <br />Once sung, <br /> <br />Like leafs have fallen away, <br />Hitting the earth like a mirror, <br />Shattering on hard cracked clay. <br />Fade. <br /> <br />As my memory fades. <br />And life, lost without my love, <br />or the ones who make my existence so, <br />Is a life I would rather forgo<br /><br />Matthew Moser<br /><br />http://www.poemhunter.com/poem/fading-away-26/
