If You Only Knew

If you only knew
Incomplete thoughts
Creep  in the space
You use to fill
With echoed memories
Crumbling walls fallimg
Like disappearing rain
Sleepless nights
Restless days
Wrapped in my fevered conscious
I run chasing dreams
Of us in deserted past
Forgetting
Your love feeds
Someone else's rainbow
My soul has changed
Like autumn leaves
Swirling in colors
Floating lifelessly
To unnourished soil
Breathless
I lay in folded coil
Dying
