White and glowing far above my reaching hands
Powdered material, touched but untouched
Has kept every promise and hence is my lover
Though your alluring beauty took that away
The first to notice it’s importance to me, was you
So I gathered up more selflessness and love then folded it in your hands
Falling asleep to the bright, goodnight, outside my window
Thoughts of you ruminated with the silhouettes of love on my wall
The love mixed together like the browns, reds, and yellows of fall
They fell, fast, they fall
Was it ever love at all?
Attempting to scrape them off the cold pavement
Finding myself striving to return them to their complacent home
Searching my hands for mere revival
Yet met with fear and bloody tears
Days were met with fewer and fewer colors
Till there was no leaf left
Only barren, lonely trees reminding me that life goes on
To allow the wind to pay it’s respects
Revealing my dark, silent silhouette
My love still yells for me from the black sky above
With it’s bright, perseverant light
Though my eyes no longer search for him
My lover still says, goodnight....goodnight
Though my eyes no longer search for him
My lover still says, goodnight....goodnight
I read that out loud and it was beautiful. *snaps fingers*
