LOVE DIES

I saw a glimpse of Heaven
In your eyes that day.
Or maybe it was Hell?
All I know is
It made me feel less
Grey.
I watched when you thought
No one could
See.
I watched you
Watching her
Watching me.
The sky was blue
The day I held you
Close to me.
Now we hold each other
Like corpses hold a conversation.
The stench carries on the breeze
Lurid smiles adorning the
Skeletal guise.
Who knows why love dies.
I felt you more those days
When I was far away
Than I can now
Touching you,
Your hand in mine is devoid of soul.
I look in your eyes
And my Heaven (or was it Hell?)
is gone.
Pieces of you
Have died away
Have left you
Like you left me, when I let you leave me
Behind.
My voice
Which withered away in your company
Has returned to me,
But your eyes still look so lonely.
There is nothing left in your eyes for me...
Lurid smiles...
Skeletal guise...
There is nothing left in your eyes.
Who knows why love dies.
