Something Lost

Something Lost is dedicated to Arix. This is my MWL one-shot entry.

Footsteps in the sand,

Winding towards the ocean,

A definite answer,

Of what she wanted.

Nothing of what I am,

Everything of what I used to be,

Strong, dark eyed,

Not pallid and haunted.

A trail of white petals,

The shards of my heart,

She doesn't realize that she has broken me,

And has torn me apart.

My muse, my love,

She is now gone,

Gone with the wind,

Was gone front the start.

I am left behind,

Contemplating memories,

Her voice, her touch,

Her eyes as blue as the sea.

What is gone,

What is no more,

What has broken,

What I believed.

My pen empty,

My paper blank,

I must start over,

Wipe the slate clean again.

She could be holding my hand,

We could be together,

But she is something lost,

Leaving behind our end.

Just pen and paper,

Faint smell of fruit,

Peaches and strawberries,

Reminder of something lost.
