Chapped lips.
Despair. Distraught. How-how could I leave thee?
To consume the darkness inside your soul,
Once mighty mountain crumbled to the sea
Never to return, never to be whole.
Running, running, you’d never return
Desperately I frantically search around
Watching you slip away as you burn,
Eyes locking as I fall to the cold ground.
Fear of knowing my cold, silent defeat
Flat on my back, being swallowed by the clay
Staring up at a face so bittersweet
In the bink of an eye the world turned grey.
Chapped lips, I usher ‘Dear, I- I love you’
But then, you my dear, your love, you withdrew.
Any ideas on how to improve is always welcome :)
