Shards of Light
The rays of light scatter throughout the room
As I take a deep breath
I feel the light
It slices my cold pale skin
I sit there
On the floor
Wishing that maybe
Just maybe I can
Find you again
Find the light in your eyes
The light that made my heart smile
That made me feel warm inside
I can hear my name roll off your tongue
Like a fragrant summer breeze
How refreshing
How rejuvenating
I long for my skin to touch your skin again
The passion and intimacy I felt by just holding your hand
Our love could have sustained a garden
But now it’s cold
There is no garden
Just the changing of the leaves
And that is how I knew
How I knew that you didn’t love me
If you ever did
I sit there
Thinking of you
Watching as the light hits the floor
It shatters
The sharp pieces of light slice into my heart
I can’t help but watch as the sky turns dark
