My Voice Is Gone

My voice is gone
I have nothing left to say
My thoughts are left laying on the floor
No one to read them
No one to hear them

My voice is gone
Whatever it was that helped me has left
I have run out of ways to say the same thing
The words mean nothing
The words meant everything

My voice is gone
Take from me what little I have
And I am nothing
I feel muted, void of idea
The time has finally come

My voice is gone
I haven't heard it in so long
It seems as if an old friend has died
I can't find it anywhere
It has left me in my hour of need

My voice is gone
I am not sure where it went
I am not aware of what caused the quiet
But, there is nothing there anymore
I need a muse
I need a reason

It's no overstatement to say it was really all I had
My only gift, my last ability to connect
And it's gone
And I am silenced
