Like a pleading voice is carried away by the wind- I have lost you. Silent cries echo back to me never having reached your ears. Desperate tears pour down my face to no avail-you are gone. It took all my strength to capture your heart, I used all my might to embrace your soul, I laid myself on the line time and again for your sake alone-and still... it was not enough to hold you down. Still.. You would not stay. You have gone and I cannot follow and though I would wait for you forever You have already left me so far behind. Though I cry out to you my voice is carried off by the wind and just like that- I have lost you.
Reason for writing:
Partly inspired by a overwhelmingly depressing movie and
partly, my own feelings at the time.
Birth sign: Scorpio
