The Void

I cannot deny

I screamed out into the void

And the whisper came back

"I love you"

It never ends

This time here

Even when our bones

Are buried In the ground.

We yet persist.

We persist

In the way we were

From now on

So how do you exist?

How do you run

When you cannot stand

And all is lost?

What love

Do you call on

In the deep, dark, cold

Watches of the night?

Or do you live

In perpetual sunshine

Denying the decay

Of your heart?

On the walls

Of this prison 

I scrawl

This is heaven.

And so it is

Sweet explosions

Of life and joy

Are now mine

And I will love this way

Until eternity

Because, you see

I have found heaven in me.

Love,

Sweet love,

Mercy has set me free

To find thee.
