Ties severed
With rusted dinner knives
Ropes burned
No longer tethered
That smile
Lined the night sky in my dreams
With brilliant light
Brighter than stars, I could finally see
We both looked out for miles
The cursor blinks
Mockingly
Your presence leers
in the caverns of my mind
Hauntingly
Those eyes
Embraced me long before your arms would
With a strong hold
Warmer than the first blanket in autumn
We were safe —
Well— you were safe
I was bold
The cursor blinks
And I’ve had enough
I finally close the page
Screen fades to black
Just like that, like us,
It is now defunct
