lost in the lies

We constantly avoid the truth.

We are weaponless soldiers in this unspoken war,

and nothing can save us.

We try to use lies as shields.

We try to convince the other our feelings are nonexistent;

we almost convince ourselves.

Why are you so far away?

I'm so lonely without you,

and my life feels dark and empty.

I try to find you, but I can't.

Are you searching for me?

I send so many messages,

but you never reply.

I'm drowning in all of these lies. Are you drowning too?

I can't swim, but if it meant I could save you,

I would drown for you.

You were the air I breathed,

and the reason my heart continued to beat.

Now I'm dying without you.

I'm lost, and so are you.

Please come and find me.

You just have to look.
