Madness

Every heartbeat

a voice crying

out your name,

longing for your response.

Merely, an empty echo

caresses my desperation,

carries me to the verge

of madness.

The darkness of love

overshadows my heart,

brings me to my knees,

leads to the death of my destiny.

_{Gustave Coubert, metmuseum.org}
