too few words to say what I mean,
too many questions
with answers I don't want.
it's a damn cold night
when you finally know
that even the arms of the one you love
cannot heal the chill in your bones.
I've left love behind me,
and so it burned our bridges in anger.
now I don't recognise it anymore.
and i will never know what it means
to belong
to you.
it's a lonely road
no lights on the way,
and I know now
that the end of the tunnel
is darker than the beginning.
the desperate sadness of heartbreak
has built a fort around me
that will last one thousand years,
and even if in ruins,
will be marvelled at one day.
In the meantime
all I can hope for
is for it to protect me
against even the most furious rain.
