Goodbye My Love

Goodbye my love 
                        all thoughts… 
                                        and Visions of you 
                               have fled My mind
                  Only to leave behind
A harsh..
      hollowed out crater 
             In the center of my soul 
                  Leaving me…
                          unconsoled…
                                                                    As your scent fades 
                                                    And memories of 
                               your eyes, 
                        Your face,
                  Your shape 
                              Surrender into shadows… 
Lost, is you; 
   forever more In my 
        Embrace….
          What faustian barging 
             Must I make, to escape
                   This plight…
Of the pain 
           of the lose.. 
                               that will follow me… 
       into the 
       Eternal night….
