You left when the sky was grey

A picture taken some years ago, I knew you then, how could I have known. Smiling eyes, where have they gone? Do you know you were the one! Sorrow behold your victim, it is that time yet, The hour of loneliness, thoughts of regret. All was right, what went wrong? Hands of time please make me strong. I lay empty, restless yet, Saddened love I force to forget. Memories fill this heart with tears, I will miss you through all my years! Next to me I touch your hand. You disappear, I don’t understand, Sweating, drowning, awakened I lay, I realize, You left when the sky was grey!

I live out in the bush veld away from society. I love art, writing songs and poetry, photography and music... and mindfulness. I feel a good way to free your soul of obstacles and uncertainties, and basically anything in life, is to express yourself...
