Ache

the ache in my soul
an open wound
piece torn from my heart
held just out of reach
kept in front of my eyes
but still denied me
depriving my senses
leaving darkness
on the periphery
of my vision.
a taste
on the tip of my tongue
a scent
as I slowly inhale
a whisper
faint in my ear
a touch
that tingles my skin
I turn but see nothing
I am left, empty handed
my senses denied
I no longer know what is real.
Late into the night
my heart falls into the abyss
waiting to be pulled in from the cold...
