Tell me you were here

Tell me you were here

1 December 2013

A last sorrowful parting kiss

Pale are your cheeks

And darkened your eyes

Before grey of death blinds them

What dark magic? You are no more

 

You are no more but were

At the brink of every memory

Beyond my wildest dreams

A brief fleeting moment

Captured in my loving gaze

 

You were but now are no more

A thought flutters in mind

Of your dark hair a field of chaos

Strewn close on my cushion to taste

Of your sighs I avidly drank

 

A chain rattled and locked inside

Clearing the mere memory of you

Dawn white brings to mind something

That long ago made me quiver

But were you really here?
