Alone Again

There were scars that never healed
     from wounds that ran too deep,
While mem’ries caught in nightmares
     haunted each night’s poor sleep.
Tomorrow was still waiting
     much further down the road,
Was lost somewhere in shadows,
     under a heavy load.

Footprints suddenly appeared
     underneath soft moonlight,
Seemed to come from yesterday
     though no one’s left in sight.
Starlight runs the gauntlet held
     by thunder’s mighty roar,
Ever hoping to return
     but ne’er knowing what for.

Emptiness soon filled the void
     absent fondness once knew,
Nothing more needs to be said
     ‘bout what’s between the two.
One now stands alone again
     as from birth in a time,
Watching the lost promise fall
     from all the ties that bind.
