Time to let you go
13 December 2015

Embers’ trail
Dull feeling of fire
The core numb
The limbs frail
From unreal I beg a crumb
Dreaded woods to stoke

Ghostly trace
Whispers of your face
Glistening
Slow fading
Your traits linings of dark clouds
Please summon the rain

The mind’s dread
Winding memory
Music box
Crimson scars
You twinkle now in the stars
Your song in my head

Memory’s lane
Walking on stray glass
Shredded feet
Eyelids’ flood
Your heartbeat alive in pain
Coursing through my blood

Heartbreak’s ebb
Time to let you go
Heartbreak’s flow
Heartache’s peak
Panic striking me so weak
The thought of goodbyes

It’s not goodbye – Laura Pausini
