his absence
seemed to be the colour of the sky today
endless grey
an emotionless surrounding
it seems to be
but watch closer and
you'll see
the stars being pushed away
by a sea
of sad grey clouds
not ready to cry yet
so the rain falls down on your face
just emptyness
everywhere you look
until you come home and you meet the mirror
and although the clouds hadn't cried yet
your own rain is dripping down
from your cheeks
