Neptune

You're too far gone
Too cold
Too distant
I can't hear your heartbeat anymore over the milky blue swirls
Only the silence in the night sky between cold breaths
The  same silence that lingered between messages the day you left
The same silence that haunted me each night 
And then…your breath went cold
That's when I realized where your soul finally lies at rest.
Neptune
I can't bring you back to the sun 
I cant warm your skin
I can't look you in your eyes and tell to hold on
You're stuck on Neptune
Till the end of eternity.
