Silent Smile
The pain would not leave
It haunted me
Showing me what might have been
Taunting
Killing me with the images
Of you
Tonight I have had enough
I am giving up
No longer can I take it
The pain of your absence
Tonight there is no moon
It is silent and black
My eyes are filled with tears
Tonight I will see you
Be in your arms
Feel your breath on my skin
Tonight I get to die
I smile to myself silently
As the coffin lid shuts.
