The Reflection of Shadows
When You Left
Through the woods and through the trees,
When shadows came upon my eaves,
The sky was overcast by you
In shades of purple, gray and blue.
Through the darkness and the pain,
Through emotions I can't name,
Swallowed whole, engulfed, submerged
In the depths of your last words.
My breath quiet, shallow, thin
Until I felt a stir within.
All I knew is what I'd lost
The day you made my heartbeats stop.
Every smile, every moment,
Everything that made me someone,
All my joy was bound in you
So when you left, you took that too.
When shadows came upon my eaves,
The sky was overcast by you
In shades of purple, gray and blue.
Through the darkness and the pain,
Through emotions I can't name,
Swallowed whole, engulfed, submerged
In the depths of your last words.
My breath quiet, shallow, thin
Until I felt a stir within.
All I knew is what I'd lost
The day you made my heartbeats stop.
Every smile, every moment,
Everything that made me someone,
All my joy was bound in you
So when you left, you took that too.
