With heavy eyes and a heart heavier still,
I gathered the courage to be alone and still,
I had ravaged all good that had been bestowed,
I was lost,
Unable to call anyone my own,
My life felt like it was shackled,
But I hold onto the hope of an ensemble,
The scattering of everything kept me at bay from my best,
Then I lost the one who understood me,
One who kept these shackles at rest,
The one who heard all my stupid complaints,
The one whose smile kept my demons at bay,
She just left without giving a fair warning,
Now I don’t know if ill ever find the lamp that can brighten up this darkness,
The darkness that engulfs me,
The darkness which is expanding because of the lack of that one smile..
