~
I felt such a wrenching pain
leaving you behind
How can someone die slowly inside
but go on living anyway?
The ache and torturous
tearing of my heart
deepened at the thought of you alone
Tiny traces of tears
still trapped between my lashes
mirror your face, your eyes
and reflected my bleeding heart

Tiny traces of tears

mirror your face, your eyes
