Echoes of goodbye By aldo kraas, www.PoetryPoem.com/poet11586 Unlock all Features - Upgrade to Poetry Prime
Tears shed in the dark of night
Mistakes made and long forgotten
Lonely echoes of goodbye
She tastes her bitter tears
Every drop scorches like acid
In her wretchedly dry mouth
No word will ever quench the
Never ending thirst
Sitting with an empty soul,
Breathless and alone
Walls close in and everything fades
This is a deception; a simple masquerade
Wearing the face
Of her painted on guilt
To pay tribute to their last goodbye
Its ending for no one to know
Eternal loneliness knocks upon her door
Dragging her into distinct numbness
The only sound is her muffled screams
The ones of the past she can't let go
Lonely echoes of goodbye
Oh how they echo
