Lights Out I Dance in the Darkness — Darkness, my lover. I Take your hand, Sway side to side — Imagining The one that got away. The Memories… Her favorite record Scratches, Still playing In the back of the room. Oh Darkness, my lover — Seeing only her shadow. Keep the lights down… Let’s dance the night away. Strands of Light Hit the room, As I desperately Hold onto— The illusion of her touch— Her hands, so tender— Tugging away At my clothes. The Light Cutting away, Showing her I can’t have— The one who’s gone. — My Heart still Beating to The sound of her feet Hitting the floor, My laugh, Matching hers, A moment, In replay In my head. This House feels cold, Left with wasted space That was once too big For the two of us, Being inseparable, Now feeling too small… Her face still lingering On the walls. Shadows Dance around, Perfectly blurring up the lines, Hallucinations start to intertwine. She’s stuck on rewind, In my mind. When the Sun Hits my back, My hands Lose their feeling. Each spot of light Burns — My lungs suffocate. “It’s time to let go.” Perhaps, one day, In the back of my mind I’ll **** you. I will learn How to dance alone In haunting memory. Lights out.
