Adieu

Adieu, my dear. 
Adieu. 
Frantically, wildly I wish you a Dieu...
Alas the obscurity of nothing was once tolerable
But that was for me. 
I thought I could bear the dark void - 
Haven't I glimpsed it often enough while alive,
What is this fear of naught - 
Such words that have accompanied me on my journey
Throughout the realm of objectivity
Are no longer the balm this aching for disinterest requires.
I do feel.
Excessively.
Unendurably. 
'Tis no longer a mere void but a gaping chasm,
A vast abyss into which we must ever fall.
Or perhaps something far worse - nonexistence - 
That nothing of you remains.
Where are you? Please I beg an answer...
Do not inflict this excruciating silence.
Supplication was never before required for you to listen, to speak.
I cannot bear the thought of you lifeless,
Of the essence of you fading away, vanishing with your breath.
Tell me that you are still alive,
Still a life. 
That god was waiting to welcome you to some enchanted, unearthly paradise.
That god was waiting.
