I'm done crying empty tears.
My memories of you
Lay by the riverside
Next to the grave of the fireflies.
Ross Apr 2020
A cluttered room;
Dusty, empty picture frames;
Cold coffee and stale toast:
Thats all that remains of you.
Euphoria is enticing
Yet fickle as flies:
Flies that flee with the slightest stir.
From the mouth of another:
"Good morning" will never be the same,
And "goodnight" will never suffice.

If I'd known that our last goodbye
Would be our last:
I wouldn't have said goodbye at all.
Ross Mar 2020
And before the sun peeps
Its cheery, bright face over the horizon,
I roll over and gaze wistfully,
At the empty space you left on the pillow,
Incessantly plagued by painful mirages:
Hauntings of the late euphoria.

— The End —
