In your troubled eyes
ominous black clouds formed above
As we waited for the sky to open up.
In your broken heart
Pain buried deep beneath the surface
A volcano waited to erupt
Your mind clouded by turmoil
A faint whisper of my intuition
failed to scream your truth.
In your soul, a grand canyon left a void
As you continued to detach
and your conscience faded
In your hands, a bottle
Filled with emptiness and relief,
A final solution and a way to find peace
In your house, a body left to die alone
Last breaths of a life
Escapable only through tragedy
Leaving only those who missed the signs.

In your troubled eyes
ominous black clouds formed above
As we waited for the sky to open up.
In your broken heart
Pain buried deep beneath the surface
A volcano waited to erupt
Your mind clouded by turmoil
A faint whisper of my intuition
failed to scream your truth.
In your soul, a grand canyon left a void
As you continued to detach
and your conscience faded
In your hands, a bottle
Filled with emptiness and relief,
A final solution and a way to find peace
In your house, a body left to die alone
Last breaths of a life
Escapable only through tragedy
Leaving only those who missed the signs.
