gray skies.

Silver.
Your eyes when you spoke are so happy,1054Please respect copyright.PENANAWVMiww8ZVN
like a bright message to the future.1054Please respect copyright.PENANALglafHzjQW
You show me your dreams and thoughts and wishes,1054Please respect copyright.PENANAiyY4I8U1gI
and I keep them close to my heart.
———
a shadow crosses your visage.
———
Argent.
You don’t tell me straight away, (am I not worth telling?)1054Please respect copyright.PENANAUlKPEtvr4U
and instead, I find out with days to spare.1054Please respect copyright.PENANA18UOsxqNwZ
It’s panic, pure panic, that keeps me gone.1054Please respect copyright.PENANAbZQcMydTav
I can barely bring myself to say goodbye.
———
the skies steadily darken.
———
Iron.
The first days are the worst.1054Please respect copyright.PENANAZKaMj02JtN
All that exists are you and the knowledge that you’ll no longer be here.1054Please respect copyright.PENANAaMBlAEM19y
And that empty, yawning space in my heart.1054Please respect copyright.PENANAiBX6DOOPDG
It hurts, you know. It really does.
———
the memory of you keeps me going.
———
Lead.
I deal with the pain.1054Please respect copyright.PENANApYuig9j04P
If I ignore it and constantly distract myself,1054Please respect copyright.PENANAKS5cTAaArP
It’s like nothings there. Well, no. That’s a lie.1054Please respect copyright.PENANA4OAhEKB70e
But you’ll never know, will you.
———
i miss you.
———
Smoke.
The burden has lightened.1054Please respect copyright.PENANAblL4yXeGnT
The throb has lessened, and the ache has dulled1054Please respect copyright.PENANAO6uWQvm3b9
It still hits me hard, that I’m now alone, that you’re no longer here1054Please respect copyright.PENANASdUMHJ0Rwk
hard enough to keel me over in tears.
———
i wonder where you are.
———
Stratus.
The worst of it has ended. Instead, I’m left with my thoughts, my memories,1054Please respect copyright.PENANAbAGdUOb0zI
and a broken heart. It could be worse.1054Please respect copyright.PENANADaXO4ohdPT
I still want you here thought, by my side.1054Please respect copyright.PENANAndfjMMwhlH
That still hasn’t changed.
———
the skies begin to clear.
———
Chromium.
And now, my fractured heart has mended. The pain has slowed to a throb,1054Please respect copyright.PENANASYqXpkwlvs
that chooses to visit once in a while.1054Please respect copyright.PENANA7ffSN3yHmn
I just have the recollections of our good days.1054Please respect copyright.PENANAIbBo0wrzbY
And the image of you, happy and bright, shining like the sun.
———
you’re the light that brightens my world.
