Lost

As morning breaks gently, night goes to sleep.
deep blue sky reminds me of the colour
of your eyes as you left, begin to weep,
you fade, horizons become much duller,

ripples create visions on calm waters
mist dances, swirling spiritual soul
reflects silhouettes, distorting borders,
you broke my heart, unable to console.

now sad day turns into a dark cold night 
futureless, endless grief, total despair 
no longer my director, leading light,
life's hard, uncompromising, so unfair.
