Wistful Nights

I drive through barren, rain kissed roads
I am cloaked in a heavy pall of sorrow and regret
With tear crusted eyes I gaze toward that dull skyline
Wishing you were my light, please be my respite
I want your arms to be my soothing repose
We could give each other solace, protected from the cold
I long to be by your side
Will I ever gaze into your eyes
Or will entropy kill this dream
Digging through my skin, wading in apathy
Sleepless dreams unanswered, decaying what’s left of hope
I call to you but I am left in deafening silence
Reaching for your warming skin
Consumed by your cruel indifference
I will always look for you…
