Tonight

Tonight

Tonight
We said goodbye
Tonight
I leave you with no words from my lips.
Tonight
I shall not write my thoughts on paper.
Tonight
I abandon any emotion feelings connected with you
Tonight
I surrender all of heart has to share.
Tonight
 without you my completeness gives nothing.
Tonight
I give in to the darkness which has captured me blind
Tonight
my lungs breathe dust from the leftover windstorm of what use to be us
Tonight
I cry yet another red sea as my heart flows with emptiness
Tonight
Of all nights I shall miss you the most
Tonight
I will remember all that we wanted, built, shared, and still ending with nothing.
Tonight
I still love you even as the moon hides in the shadows of the clouds
Tonight
I wanted to need you.
But tonight
You're gone
