“Gone”
When I see him
A shadow standing on my doorstep late at night,
When I feel him
His hands ghosting over my trembling frame,
When I hear him
Whispering that same song in my ear,
An inner peace.
But like the night,
He won't be here for long.
And when he climbs out of my window,
He leaves my heart a shattered mirror on the floor.
And when he walks out of my lonely room,
He leaves his love for me behind.
But in these crumpled sheets,
I can smell him.
But in the shadows cast upon the wall,
I can see him.
But wrapped up in his shirt,
I can feel him.
But in the absence of that sweet song, the wind whistles to me and tries my tears,
I know he was here.
He was once a shadow upon my doorstep,
He was once a ghost on my trembling frame,
But as the sun rises...
I know
He left me behind.
End
