Your words were the wind--
Crushing,
Defeating,
And then nothing all at once.

Like the waves,
Love crashed on our shores
And withdrew with fragments of us in it.

As time grew, so did we.
I still think about the words
You've said to me.

The laughs fade to grey,
Smiles to black.
Just thinking of your eyes
Almost brings the time back.

Now that you're gone,
I can say

We were two leaves of the same tree.
Destined to fall.
Never to stay.
