Faces Like Mine


Do tell me, please, I beg you... where is this substance that you once spoke of? Should I go deeper? Should I look somewhere else? It is so disappointing to try and find something you know none shall carry....

Why should I conceal it? Why should I abide? Is there any reason, good or bad, that would enable me to render another scream in trying to disguise the meaningless riddle that he has offered me? He left, I stayed. There isn't much to be added to this short drama. Only consequences...


"Think of your darkest nights, think of your soul alone... if you can bear the sight, think of the love you've never known..."

Just once more, let me see him just once more... it's all I ask... don't become air-like so soon--- can't you see that I still need you? Should I keep my promise? Is it what you want from me? I guess I could... maybe all of this is nothing but delaying the unavoidable... Is this all the comfort you can offer now? Is this it? I would have expected to find much more... I thought you would walk with me throughout the whole of my remaining years. And yet... I don't feel you any more... and this scares me... you are the only thing in this world that I find to be worth fighting for, the only thing that helps me believe, the only thing that I can consider pure and magical... Is this really it? Is this really the end? I can't help but think that I should just... jump. I wish I could master the strength to do so... jump--- into the nothingness... into the cold hard floor... destroying everything in seconds... only to find I'm complete once more.
