By The Bane Of Love

Silence... pervades my day
Where once there were
Tiny, happy ICQ sounds upon my computer
Now there is only void...
An empty abyss in which I feel alienation
As, ostracized, I exist within Nether

The numbers I once dialled
To hear the music of your voice
Now prove worthless, as endless rings
Produce no answer... and messages are heeded not
As though you desire for yourself
The fate you've destined me... to be left alone

My mind once active lays now dormant
Mordant... in Limbo; visions of Future's ours,
Imaginings of instants, events yet unshared
The idea of a life together... an "us"
Are withering with your neglect
Dwindling with Day's demise

I used to carry you next to me
In my heart, constant in thoughts
Steadfast in every waking moment
Yet without you here now,
With only memories to replenish my strength
Malnourished... love is dying

To resurrect what we once had
Would require you to interact;
To reciprocate the caring
I harbor within, still lavishing you
With affection in hope
Of bringing your life back to love

But I fear that all efforts shall prove futile
There is no anwering heartbeat
When I feel for your pulse
And I am devastated beyond consolation
That your love, once so vibrant.
Seems now incapable of resuscitation
