Come Back

A dull knife,
A white veil,
A dirty ring,

Surrounds me.

Angry glances,
Messed up chances,
Torn hemming,

Mocks me.

Selfish whispers,
Dark clouds,
Red roses,

Stares at me.

Footsteps echoing,
Falling tears,
A turning face,

Reminds me.

The day you left,
The days are gone,
And I still pray,

Your love haunts me.

Come back,
Please stay,
Don’t go,

Goodbye.
