A blanket of clouds.
Drop after drop after drop.
The sky is crying.

Silence is my favourite sound,
         Because if you listen carefully
You can hear everything

Dark grey clouds appeared upon the sky.
           As the raindrops started pouring down,
I knew it was time for goodbye.

Extinguishing the fire inside me
        That used to burn so bright.
Fading out the passion
        And dimming all the light.

Nothing is left of me,
         My heart has gone cold.

That was my story that for once,
Needed to be told.

Your beauty reminds me of the song of the birds.
                Your beauty left me empty with no words.
Your beauty reminds me of the bright daylight.
                 Like a shining star in my night.

He walked, she walked,
           They walked, he left
Gone, far way

To a place she could not go
Emma Slootmans Feb 2018
My tree of life is slowly dying
       after I stood in your shadow for way too long
and the only water I got was toxic.
