Missing

Here I lay in the earth

Only one of 7 billion

One in a hundred

Millions die 

and millions live

Soon to be trillion

In this place of mirth

And filled with dread

What can I give?

There is a distant ceiling

In a room with no doors

And a falling floor

Why do I live?

Held at the core

Drowned in mantle

And trapped by rock.

How do I forgive?

Muffled screams

Missing voice

Broken dreams

Lost love
