Shouting Into the Void

Our words reflected in the look upon our faces, that no one is left unscathed.

No use in trying to pick up broken pieces of a love that's slowly dying.

And yet something in me still holds onto the good we had. No,

I can't give up trying. We conquered depths of hell that seemed so

insurmountable. We're talking past each other. We shout to the void.

We shout. Call to your heart, embrace me. All words are

fading. Spoken silence is deafening, loud. Ooh.

One step forward and ten steps back, this redundant dance of love.
