Yellow
the shine in your eyes
lights up the world it once was
your system is crashing
and you won't tell me why
that light is dying
and you won't tell me
the reason behind
promises of eternal sleep
swarm your mind
the promises we once made
no longer count
count me out
if you are no longer there
bad come-backs
mixed with reality
pours cold water
on the heat that once was
it can't be undone
you're gone until the
forever night
dawns bright
with light from the sun.
