As tears fall, times have changed,
running through our yesterdays
like empty pages in a book;
hopes turned away,
from magical times under celestial nights.
Wondering why in silenced sorrows
left behind as an empty thought.
As love's dream quickly fades away
like a hardened stone
without its once polished luster;
awaiting unspoken words nary to come.
Lost; nowhere left to run.
Wondering why in silenced sorrows
left behind as an empty thought.
What shall tomorrow bring without you;
a figment of nothingness
suspended in a continuum of eternal time.
Many questions to be answered,
where did your love go?
Why did bright days become so dark?
Running away with memories unforgotten.
You walked with pride into my life,
fulfilling every step
carrying dreams of enlightenment,
past worried tears of unspoken good-byes.
Instantly, you walked away with no turning back
placed like a forbidden memory behind locked treasures
left behind as an empty thought.
