eternity | vk

twenty five

whenever i think

of a life without you,

the sky darkens

to the color of ash

and crumbles to the ground.

the luscious green plants

on the side of the road

wither

and die.

the roaring flame

in the fireplace

burns out

into a pile of splintery wood.

and my heart

shatters

to a million pieces,

and the wind

carries them away.

so

please don't leave me,

my light,

my love,

my sun,

my stars,

my world.
