“why do i care”

~~

Why do i even care, sitting here alone

while holding this candle of truth,

thinkingĀ  of you ?.

Your wisdom seeping through.

Wounds healing from a dark seated past,

every heart beat feeling like the last one.

Here i sit in this chair

wondering why i even care.

Why do i want to take your hand and guide

you there ?.

This light , it’s so bright as if it shines through some forgotten tunnel.

I see, yet i don’t remember.

You said “you are right” yet i don’t remember.

The only thing that hold’sĀ  fast in

this dream,

is the memory of going back through

this dark tunnel.

Holding onto the candle of truth,

while thinking of you .
