My Darkness Revealed

Shards

In the darkest depths
Silver and blue
Nothing is there
But shards of you

Once I held you
Soft and gentle
Until then, in time
A wrinkle

Left us there alone
Face to back
Once blue and silver
Now, a wash in black

And all I have
Is all that I lack
Memories of you
Peeking through

- David A. Mishoe
