Missing - Just Missing

The moment was silent, stillness Covered my thoughts in melancholy Quiet hope shimmering on the skies Just stardust glimmers lighting the night In gentle breaths of warming moonlight Heartfelt loss and soft reflections Darkness pouring out shadows of dread For the coming days the emptiness Memories burning like rays of yearning Fear so bleak it rests silently on the soul Mysterious and morbid as the death That has come to abide on our hearts One rose, white like a snowflake Petals delicate and trembling with pain Sorrow so surreal and so violent Anguish grows like a vine clinging cruelly To the soul who hopes to know Comfort from the grief that comes As the silence nurtures the lingering Dusk who haunts even the memory Edging every thought with despondency Missing – just missing The feeling pierces hope Wounds inspiration And feeds the darkness Penetrating with heartbreak
