Young-Talented-Teens

You looked at me with sunset eyes Teeming with an ocean’s depth Waves were crashing down your cheeks Tears you should have never wept And I heard a sound I’ll not forget The slamming front door as you left In shock I waited as tragedy unfurled Denial settled into the silence of my world Without a glance or shallow sigh You left me here with no goodbye But in my heart there grew an ache A pain that, most nights, keeps me awake And now I finally realize What I saw in those shining eyes Not the sunset; the sunrise So this was never a goodbye No… This was letting go. And now I’m coming back.
