Just emptiness and pain are my domain

I've died already from this hopelessness,
As if I don't exist, a fading trace.
And every day is lost in emptiness,
My stubborn heart has made a vow in this place.
Each beat, a dull and aching, mournful sound,
Repeats the letters of a cherished name!
My heart sees nothing worthy on this ground,
No other guide, no beacon, and no flame.


My sleepless nights are lonely and so long,
The clock just ticks upon the wall in vain.
Each second lasts for years, where all is wrong,
And all my lonely days are filled with pain.
The hope that barely smoldered, died away,
And only ashes now remind of it.
The void has frozen like a crashed display,
And pain, a thousand knives, just will not quit.


Your words have wounded, they have slain me whole…
And jealousy has poisoned like a snake…
There's only doom that's left now for my soul,
Or memory – your angry, jealous ache.
I'm sitting on the ashes, thinking now…
Among the ruins, breathing faint and low…
There is no path. This is my dwelling now!
A fog on ruins and a hollow glow.

Just emptiness and pain are my domain,
The ruins of my hope, my love's debris.
And memory, where jealous smiles remain,
Revealing venomous fangs for me to see.
