Sacred were you to my heart, My weakened soul did you rend apart. The tears spilled endlessly, liquid shards of glass staining my cheeks . . . You looked down upon me, your gaze distant and bleak. Roaring were the Heavens above, only a fractioned essence of my breaking heart . . . And only then did I fall to my knees at your feet, apologizing for my innocent part . . . Darkness stretched infinite across the sky, Merely reflecting the empty void consuming me from inside . . . The thunder bellowed the instant you turned your back on me, My heart finally shattered, falling into the depth of my soul, damned for all eternity. In defeated shame I lowered my head, And at that moment, the clouds began to weep, not another word was said . . . Without a backward glance, from me you stepped away . . . From that trice thereafter were my nights marked as cold, and dark to be the rest of my days.
