Cold days of September

I saw the smile of an angel after the tears that cold September night,

I heard your soul reaching out for some warmth as I walked away with the light

I saw your helplessness in the fight against that which only you knew of,

I was lost in time, imbued in oblivion, I lost a fight I never knew of

I felt my essence vaporized when I held your cold hands and saw your pale blue face as I looked into your eyes,

I heard my heart shatter into a million pieces and all I did was cry

I saw that which one should ever see, I felt that which no one should ever feel,

I felt a great struggle with comprehension, I had a touch with everything but reality

I saw the difficulty that comes with accepting what was, the impossibility of understanding what will be,

I heard a little whisper in my ear "things will never be the same on this new journey"

I saw a melancholic cloud hovering over my head when I looked upwards to you for comfort,

I felt sullen wind filling my sail, on gloomy waters my boat now goes forth

I heard an orchestra of tears as our feet kissed the dirt while we walked like a legion defeated of soldiers down the dusty path,

I saw glassy eyes amidst my love lay looking peaceful with a flower in her hands

I felt the unwanted loneliness no one should ever feel frolicking around the place the body that once housed her soul would stay forever,

I stood at the edge of lunacy realizing a new phase has begun but my life now is over

I lost that which no one should ever lose, I watched the one who should always stay with me leave, now anytime I remember the cold days of September,

I hear my heart shatter into a billion pieces and all I can do is cry,
