Fragments of a Fading Heart

Just another night alone, under a moonlit sky,

Trying to find the pieces, of the why and the how,

I'm running low on colors, in a black and white life,

Searching for the light, as the shadows crowd my mind.

I’m running low on that serotonin and dopamine,

Every thought turns to echoes, in this silent scream,

Counting all my heartbeats, they're fading out of time,

Memory plays its tricks, where the heartache used to climb.

All they cared about was how good the sex was,

A fleeting moment's pleasure, never truly because

There’s a part of me that’s missing, a warmth left behind,

Trying to heal these wounds, but the scars are intertwined.

Oh, I'm slowly crumbling, fighting gravity's pull,

These empty moments spin in circles, I'm no longer whole,

I'm just a whisper in a crowd, where no one hears the sound,

Searching for a lifeline, but it’s lost and never found.

I just do it cause I do, don’t overthink the game,

With kind hearts and open hands, yet I still feel the same.

I’m tired of being kind, too helpful, playing it safe,

On autopilot mode, wrapped in my own fate.

Every piece of kindness leaves a mark on my soul,

But in this empty chase, I’ve forgotten my goal,

I wish for just a moment, to feel alive again,

To let the colors bleed, let the joy in my veins.

Oh, I'm slowly crumbling, fighting gravity's pull,

These empty moments spin in circles, I'm no longer whole,

I'm just a whisper in a crowd, where no one hears the sound,

Searching for a lifeline, but it’s lost and never found.

So I’ll gather up the pieces, though it may take some time,

Learning how to smile, find the rhythm in the rhyme,

With every single heartbeat, I’ll rise up and glide,

Filling in the cracks, once again finding my pride.
