Untitled - Poem

Here, here is where I find myself 
in a strange place of desperation 
wanting to feed on your integration 
but we are apart
separated by the silence of knowing that we do not know
we do not know the answer 
but why do i continue to ask you say
the reason for my delay 
is that i want to say that i know why 
but this i do not

a penny for every thought and a dollar for every lie
this is why 
at this late hour my tears cause me to cry 
cry out with the words that will not make it past my mind
in my memory i know this
in my voice i speak this 
and so when you ask me why i feel so desperate 
so much like left and abandoned
why cant i just get it together
my answer to you 
does not fulfill the meaning of emptiness, that i now know, you cannot fill.
this is why.
