Waiting - Persephone

Your spirit still fills the air

Your voice is echoing in my head

Footsteps creeping through the house

I know you will come back

And I’m waiting patiently

Minutes become hours

Hours of nothingness

The clock is ticking

Watching me in my loneliness

Staring at the door, in hope you’ll return

Counting minutes, days, months…

I can’t stand this silence

Hours become years

Years of emptiness

Time’ll be my murderer

Hands are its spies

Watching me in my senselessness

Sitting in my room all alone

Waiting…

Loneliness is killing me

Dying has begun
