Dark yet not 2: Love Book

The coldheartedness shook me...

Smiles, cheers and laughter - colorful bubbles floating in the air.

The best days of my life. 

In our spare time, we had each other -

Absence does make the heart grow fonder.

That urge becomes a reversal when the one you're spending the rest of your life with,

 Becomes lifeless and the more you're apart,

The deeper the wounds go.

Life turns upside-down the moment you turn cold-sober.

Realization hits you like an atomic bomb - the effects scar you.

The glow of their skin fading into the dull-grey soil,

Only to enrich it with a crimson stain.

Eyes wide, trying to captivate and differentiate illusions and reality.

Unsettling.

The feeling of dread wraps around your head, 

Locking you, straining your brain,

Like a caged bird.
