Silent Footsteps

I look back up upon your silhouette; but realizing you are gone, forever.

Silent Footsteps
By Rikka K

Singing softly the silent song of sadness
I feel the dull throb of pain make its way
To my heart, ready to strike the kill
And crush it till nothing remains.

Silently gazing upon the darkened frame
That you, young man, cast upon my heart
My soul, in turn, shatters into dust
As I hear the shadows underneath your feet

Strangely I smell a silent chime of petals
Bristling along on the parched ground
I look back up upon your silhouette
But realizing you are gone, forever.

I glance at where my footsteps once fell
And sweetly remembering its solemn terrain
I turn back to where I once stood before
You came, my love, and tore me away.
