Nights Darkest Skies

Location

 

 

On the edge of night's darkest skies

barren times swept away

those beautiful memories.

You left me alone

deserted in a desert

with no water to quench my thirst.

The mirage blinks out

as reality weighs down

on my tortured soul.

I clutch onto the shreds

of my own sorrow

pressing them against

my bleeding heart

as it slowly falls into the abyss

of my invisible tears.

Unknowing catches my breath

and sweeps me into the winds

of days, months, years.

You left me in the desert

On the edge of night's darkest skies... Where did you go?
