Denial Empty minded, and falling in deeper, faster. A pen in hand, an empty paper lays before me, This letter won’t write itself, no matter how much I stare. A burning candle lies before me, inside myself The light is burning out, getting dimmer and dimmer, Leaving my heart in the dark, in the pit of denial I dig myself into. Is there any chance that this letter, my thoughts, Could reach you, when I can’t reach out and hold your hand? Mumbling apologizes never worked for me, and now, Screaming your name only causes my heart to break more. I’m sorry, I’m sorry; those words can’t be said enough. And if I can’t say it to you, if I can’t write these words to you, I’m stuck in this hole. You’re not gone, you’ll never be gone. I’ll hear your voice in my sleep, and your footsteps on the floor. And I won’t sit under the shadow that forever hides your grave.
