Endless

His shattered existence dwells in the chapter of void,
like a twisted game it seeks to cripple his soul.
He can't vacate the dark that cages emotion,
it thrives on the moments that dig his hole.
Reckless he has become a slave to himself
as breaking waves surge the ache.
A rugged darkness has created his shadow,
sorrow holds a future of intense heartache.
He tries to grasp the past through a fading memory,
the distance, far from reach.
There is no warmth while the cold blankets light.
As the breeze whisked her away the dark 
stole love in a reckless world.
The room echoes her laughter, but touch belongs to yesterday.
He longs to hear her whisper through the falling rain
and prays for a miracle, the essence of her.
Heavens mystic sanctuary would one day catch their glow,
that sacred paradise where endless would be theirs.
He savors his whisky in the stillness of time
and as the picture falls from his hand,
closes his eyes and whispers, I love you.
