The shattered thoughts of a once beautiful mind,
Become quite different once you leave someone behind.
Someone who once meant so much,
The soul that could make him quiver at but a touch.
A future that once seemed so bright,
Now dead and gone like the evening light.
For what once was such a beautiful thought,
Now makes him solely feel distraught.
The subtle ending that came too soon,
Their lives forever intertwined as though in a loom.
Now he must move on, leaving his thoughts behind,
Though forever he’ll know she had a beautiful mind.
Though some people come and others go,
Not everyone has the option to do so.
Whenever the time comes, the reaper knows,
The next soul that he wants, and the seed is sowed.
Six feet in the dirt another beautiful mind wastes away,
And six years later, he still hears the song her heart once did play.
One of love and opportune, now gone forever, all too soon.
