After The Battle
_____________________________________________________

I wake up and remember that you're gone,
I cry into my pillow,
Longing for the song.
I think about these last words,
That one last glimpse,
Before you died,
Before you faded into the mist.
I hate myself for not telling you before,
I hate that every inch of me still remembers you,
I hate that it keeps replaying over and over in my head,
I hate how hard it is to say 'goodbye',
And never see you again.
Fragmented memories drift through me,
While every fiber of me is searching,
Searching for the answers,
Searching for what's left of me,
Now that you're just cinders.
