Too loud to whisper

I cannot remember the sky
and I do not feel the stars anymore.
Did I become the parasite
in a host of discarded thoughts?

Before the memories fade,
I see the silhouette
of your fingertips
reaching for me.

Is it a mirage?
Maybe I am going blind.
I am losing my tears
in a heap of your words.

Your voice
so silent
it threatens to leave me deaf.

I disappear
in your mind,
forgotten
in a desert of ice.

Skin after skin is shed,
no layers left.

One day,
I will hold on
to a soap bubble,
and it will take me away.

But my whispers are too loud.

The bubble burst.
