Who will know - 2017

If I die in this world

Who will know something of me?

I am lost, no-one knows

There's no trace of my yearning

If I die (but I must)

In this world (carry on)

Who will know (nothing worse)

Something of me? (can befall)

I am lost (all my fears)

No-one knows (all my tears)

There's no trace (tell my heart)

Of my yearning (there's a hole)

I wear a void

Not even hope

A downward slope

Is all I see

I wear a void (as long as breath as breath comes from my mouth)

Not even hope (I may yet stand the slightest chance)

A downward slope (a shaft of light is all I need)

Is all I see (to cease the darkness killing me)
