For once

Everything went as planned.

I had you, you had me.

My hand was in your hand.

But like everything else

You disappeared far to soon,

Tonight my only company

Is the moon.

And the stars

Whisper to me your name,

Like everything else I've lost,

In this silly game

That we call life.

Even as I walk

Through the dark

To myself I talk.

I end up yelling at my self,

Thinking of what I could've done.

My own words pierce my skin,

Like a loaded gun.

As tired as I am

I can't close my eyes

In fear others will be taken,

Without goodbyes.
