After the end

After the end

When the only image left

Is the idea of your scent;

And of what it reeks

Is your face in distress

When you claimed you were weak.

While details fade away

The agony is permanent

If only it were the other way

Flashbacks would not burden.

 

After the end,

When the only new beginning

Is a heart that is broken;

And what to look forward to

Is the vision of a next life

When it will not **** me to love you.

While there are plenty of fish in the sea

The belief I found him daunts me

If I were to have one last plea

Flashbacks, for my sake, stop haunting me.
