Dusk Requiem (the day you left me)

by Anastasia Shows

The pain in my voice is the soundtrack to the anguish that is running down my face,
the thoughts, the smiles, the laughs, the sighs
are all vivid pictures in my eyes that i wish i could erase.
Was this all your elaborate act,
so that i could get fiction mixed up with fact?
Those deep blue eyes, that say so much without a sound,
I used to swim there, but today i dround.
I half expected you to turn round and kiss my tears away.
Then you'd wrap your arms around me and declare your stay.
No, instead i watched your figure disappear into the horizon,
and my last spark of hope went down with the sun.
That was the day i lost my zest and became no one.
Loneliness washed down my face,
i felt so out of place.
The life left my eyes.
My mouth was dry so i said no goodbyes,
and i sat there in the dark and counted the fireflies.
