Memories from February

A nightmare, I thought, and I’d awake

To find you beside me, for my heart’s sake

But dawn broke, and I found myself alone

Crying in the corner, my bed a throne

I gazed out the window, tears streaming down

Waiting for your return, but only sorrow’s found

The silence is deafening, the emptiness vast

My heart cries out for you, but you’re not here at last.
