Song of night

by TH - Scorpio

Once again she greets me,
bids me welcome,
in her world of tears.
While the currents flow,
the drops fall
in a harmonious, rythmic song
I know so well.
It's the song of despair
at seeing her smile
not for me, but for a faceless other.
It's the song of loneliness
for being here, while
she is there.
It's the song of realisation
that this is how it will be
no matter how hard I try.
Once again she bids me welcome
while wrapping me
in a blanket of pain
that will heal
with every smile she gives
to someone else.

Reason for writing:

    Saying goodbye to a love meant for a lifetime.
