When midnight embraces the skies,
When desolation sits in,
I can hear silent bellows,
She screams for you,
She drowns in torment,
For no words can define the grief,
For the rain brings agony,
For she was left with nothing--
but a cold tombstone with an epitaph etched beneath your name.
What a world to live in--
without you in it.
Lost you forever.
In this life, we will never again encounter.
I miss you and still ache for you.
The tears never dry, mi amor.
White sheets and a warm hug;
Sun rays and coffee in a mug;
Your sleepy eyes and bright smile,
It makes the wait worth my while.

Yellow and green,
Fresh and crisp.
Mornings are wrapped in the perfume of eternity,
That assures evenings a scent of serendipity.

As always, my radiant sunshine.
And forevermore, my calm moonshine.

Deep into the night, when the silence sits in, all I hear are my echoing thoughts.

In the deafening darkness and whispering winds, I'm home.

Dawn and dusk.
Sunshine and moonlight.
Whisper and bellow.
Laughter and pain.

How can the world be both -
Beautiful yet cruel;
Wonderful yet atrocious;
Breathtaking yet infernal.
In a world where we experience the other ends of a spectrum, it would be nice to look from each other's perspective.

Is it the mirror?
Or all I can see is horror?
Whenever I look at the glass,
All I can see is a broken past.

They say, "Choose."
But let me ask, "Do I have a choice?"
