The cold grey of a January morn, reflecting my spirit so utterly forlorn. Was it pain I felt when I watched you leave, or a chance for freedom and some small reprieve.
Only Silence remained, as you closed the door, heard your footsteps fade, like the waves on the shore. Love never lingered, nor heard my plea, it could only tear asunder, in its bid to be free.
Now time owns my soul but you have moved on, You embrace this new stranger and say he’s the one, and if ere I wish the clock hands would turn, to those flames of desire, where our passions did burn.
Now all I claim is this house full of tears, with its memories and dust marking the years, and my spirit remains forever bereft , of those things that you stole on the day that you left.
life moves on and we find new paths, meet new friends and love will inevitably spring forth again but some things remain forever embedded within the darkest depths of the soul.
