GoneA Poem by Awaken the Sleepwalker
Frosted glass, sharing the world of a crystalline jungle.
Ice hangs on the branches like mildew on your pillow Icicles drip and freeze above the fireplace. which doesn't warm me any longer Twilight isn't for many hours but the blackness has already dissipated in the mist. A lady, tinted like an emerald that has lost its sparkle Bestowing images of you glassy eyes after being dealt the cruel fate of the red Her face is sad. He emotions trapped under the rapture of her surface. She flows over the floor a mere cocoon of her old self The old self that is now only a remnant in photographs Her velvet hair is ratted and tangled For this ghost, heaven is only a reverie For this ghost, is you, and you belong with me.
