Castles were painted in your eyes and dreams were whispered
in my ears
Fingers laced to form the foundation for our home and life
happened nice and slow
Your eye like a child and innocence to match, your smile
full of joy and my heart didn’t stand a chance
A year came and went and our love triumphed through thick
and thin
A year flew past us and the world was silenced in the face
of our love and its strength
But when the wind blew out the man I was in love with and
gave me who you became, I’ll never know
That cold 4th of June, it was just another
Saturday in the story of trial and triumph
The hours rolled by and your eyes suddenly spewed anger in
place of the love I’d always known
Midnight came and I sat alone in a taxi… Numb.
Counting street lights and wondering when my phone would
light up with an apology
Words of venom left your mouth and their pungent rawness
created bullet holes in my being
The sound of laughter surrounded me while my world fell
apart
It took you just one night, to crumble everything we built
over 1 year
Every beautiful thing you had ever said played back an old
song in my heart
And my head reeled in disbelief of how you could play both
parts to such perfection
A week has gone by and as I sit at my desk, surrounded by
chaos
The weight of loss fills my veins and my soul starts to
search for its friend again
“Let it go” they say, “you won’t even feel it one day” they
go on
But they don’t know… They will never know
I have counted the hours that you didn’t exist in, and the
minutes that followed
I have recorded the seconds that I’ve sat in silence and the
days I have slept by the phone
How easily the universe took from me all the love I had
every known
How carelessly you threw away all the love I had ever given
you
Forever left to hang on a noose in the dead of the night
And just like that castles turned to dust, dreams start to
rust
And all I’m left with is what could have been the most
incredible ending to us.
