The sky started to fall,
over me...
Had I've been very much occupied,
that the sky wasn't really you?
I was laughing,
my heart out,
and I couldn't stand that fact,
I just couldn't stand it,
you're just nowhere at all..
Or you're really not my sky,
more or less my shadow?
it would have been hard for me,
accepting that I am with you
all the time...
but it really isn't.
How long should I keep this,
time is running away,
and so are you...
How long would I stand here,
and see you fly away...
instantly...
I am not your wings,
maybe...
but had I've been that bad?
To be someone you considered as a burden,
sorry, I guess,
I've been delaying you.
The map has been gone again,
and so the sky has fallen,
the sun has set,
and so the shadow behind me,
You flew away with your own wings,
and so I am alone again...
Will you come back...
please?
You're my identity...
Author notes
definitely a quickie for me...
and I am really taking it. I got your prompt for Lost Love
he's gone, for good, he'll be nowhere to be seen, but I'll keep looking...

sometimes poets go overboard with their punctuation... this is one of those times which makes the read stilted and uneven to say the least.
