J ithered flowers
like shadows of the past
lay across the pillow of my heart

               Empty spaces
               yawning in the dark
               let me know we'll always be apart

               Tearful glances
               resurrect the passage
               of a bullet that has nowhere else to go

               Final silence
               echoes off the quiet
               leaving me with nothing else to know
