How long

How long will you not see me,
Walk past me with your lowered eyes,
How long will your thoughts consume me,
Like fire licking a log of wood,
How long will my skin thirst for your touch,
My memories fade away,
Like mist laden morning,
Your scent is not potent enough to help me breath,
I search around in every crowd,
For your eyes,
Once they held so much love are now empty,
Just like mine,
I have learnt my mistakes,
So have you,
How long will my own reflection nauseated me,
How long..
