Once Upon a Time

There was a moment in time where I was content, when you were my life and all that it meant! There’s a vision of the past that bares your face but today it shows me a desolate place. These pictures that you see are of a life I knew, And of all the bounty that I gave to you. I still hear you telling me I that I am your soul but now your absence restrain me from being whole! Once I prayed to see your return, when the fire of hope continued to burn. I feel your presence every now and then but I feel the pain you caused again and again! Once upon a time when you were mine, through my smile the stars would shine! Take a look at the emptiness that I possess, Stare into the eyes of my distress! Know that once upon a time I was one. Now you are the reason I am none!
