I searched for you in the seams of the past,
I called your name — no answer ever came.
You dwelt in my breath, though were not meant to last,
Like withered Spring behind the veil of May.
I watched the night unfold across your face,
Each step you took rewrote what we had known.
A fleeting love, a long-cursed sacred place—
Amid the ruins, I still stand alone.
I held you, but I couldn’t remain,
I loved you, but I drowned in my pain.
Our eyes met, but the world slipped away,
It wasn’t possible, though my heart begged to stay.
You touched my soul with the gold of your youth,
I dreamed an ending so different for both.
You fled afar, yet never left my thoughts,
Until you sunk-lost, in my gallery of ghosts.
You left no promise, just your lips on the glass,
You shared a glance that lingers, through my darkest days.
I reached your snow, looking for your heart,
While a crow danced with laughter at the rhythm of my death.
I held you, but I couldn’t remain,
I loved you, but I drowned in my pain.
Our eyes met, but the world slipped away,
It wasn’t possible, though my heart begged to stay.
I cried you out, but you didn’t take it,
You wept, still I stepped away.
All was burnt down — but you resuscitated,
As heavenless goddess feeding on my pray.
I held you, but I couldn’t remain,
I loved you, but I drowned in my pain.
Our eyes met, but the world slipped away,
It wasn’t possible, though my heart begged to stay.
You held me, but you couldn’t remain,
You loved me, but you drowned in your pain.
Our eyes met, but the world slipped away,
It wasn’t possible, though our hearts begged to stay.
