Another poem/story:
He wonders what his life will become; can he walk alone?
Colorless shades conceal the existence of another, stalking his mental whereabouts;
Staring aimlessly into the depths beyond, a silhouette drags the focus from his eyes;
Another arbitrary disturbance, yet familiar in every way;
Source unknown, teasing the rim of his vision, he seeks the apparition;
Heavily drawn by the shadowy figure, festering in his mind;
Obsession consumes and desire takes over, concentration stolen eternally;
A partial figment rarely witnessed in whole, bits and pieces, a vaporous memory;
Reality splinters with the task at hand; the presence before him begging to be noticed;
Recalling the nameless that frequents his slumber, here rests the form so highly sought;
His mind illuminates with recognition, as unchecked tears escape his control;
Burdening his heart, sacrifice readily awaits;
Never to meet on this side of existence, only in dreams faintly remembered;
Awakening in hazy light, to walls blindingly pallid;
Like the deadening pain in her chest, the phantom tugs at her thoughts;
His presence lingers, beneath the scars, passing life to her every breath;
By her side, the veil of anonymity removed, his shadow accompanies her step by step.
