Yesterday

Jet Shadows are glistening
Reflections of mournful ghosts
Candid memories that sting my eyes
And undo the fabric of my soul

It seems like yesterday
Your hair fell on me
And then so suddenly
You were gone from me

My existence is now a shell
The skin I live in moves
But my emotions are charred
They are a desolate place

It seems like yesterday
We held hands walking
You passed so suddenly
My existence melts away
With your memory

I have now been cursed
For the worse I fear
That this world will consume
Me without you

It seems like yesterday
Graveyards never seemed so cold
And tears never came so frequently
Your hand slipped from mine
And you were gone forever
