The Edge of Nothing

I am now dying

Yet still I am trying

Extending my hand

Hoping to understand

The pile of clouds over

As snowflakes hover

And though all is white

This feeling I can’t fight

Choking in my own breath

Drowning in my own sweat

Now blind and have nothing

I have erased everything

The moment the sun left

Until the candle wept

I will soon leave and fade

Along the dawn and shade

Only fragments I have kept

Of our love that once crept

But a piece of me remains

In your heart that never wanes

To keep you warm if it is cold

A true friend when you are old
