Forgotten

Your soul moved on faded
Eradicated and lost
I felt the emptiness 
The loss of such purity
Tears emptied from my eyes
My heart stopped beating 
Woe is my only emotion 
Passionless existence 
If only love could 
Retrieve and bring you back 
If only these words 
Were a spell
I would repeat my sorrow
In your arms 
And alas love would 
Flower and embellish
Come back my soul
For without you
Life is cold and barren 
You are me I am you.

The forgotten always haunt, their souls never move on. "Love", is what brings them back to haunt. Xx
