Feelings of Lost Love

The darkness grows within me
It has no color, black is not an option
If it were black, something would be there
But here, within me, there is nothing
Just the emptiness 
Growing

I feel it consuming me
How much is enough
Will it never end
or will it go on forever
until nothing of me is left
except the memory of you
of what was

A bright spec of light
lost in the vast darkness
I look up into the night sky
at other bright specs
and wonder at the many
who have been here before me

Reason for writing:

    A love that died before it had a chance to reach full 
bloom, and the despair which followed.
