Images of you flash in my mind,
full-color, real-life images.
I close my eyes,
trying to shake off the pain that follows.
The gut-wrenching, heart-breaking, soul-searing lonliness,
it all comes after seeing your face in my mind.
My heart cries out for you,
my brain automatically stops its cries,
telling my heart that you're gone for eternity,
you're just out of my grasp.
My heart and soul scream "injustice!"
Tears well up in my eyes,
shine like diamonds for a second,
before, like water running down a waterfall,
sliding down my cheeks.
The lusterous,dancing blue eyes that once held life and love,
now pale and give way to dull,lifeless,depressed blue eyes.
Those eyes look old and wise beyond their years.
The owner knows no happiness,
for all her memories consume her,
never to let her escape the life that was lost,
the life that will never be again.
