Now That You Are Gone

 Now that you are gone,
Happiness has eluded my mind,
As it knows
There is not an iota of joy.

Now that you are gone,
Happiness has eluded my mind,
It has promised
It would never come again
Until we bring it back.

The sounds of laughter replaced by silence,
Smiles replaced by frowns,
It seemed the world
Is one dark, doomed place
Where sorrow knew no bounds.

The grief so intense,
my mourning so deep,
I was lost in tears,
And profoundly bereaved;
I consoled my heart 
With unspoken words,
Stifled our lengthy sigh;
As tears rolled down my cheeks,
It was time to say goodbye.

She was a rebel, we knew long back,
But never knew
She would end this way.
She had chosen this fate the very day,
Her beau had passed away.

  I will rise like the phoenix, from the grief, but wont let you rest your soul;
You will be with me as much as I will be with you,
Just like my good old days.
  I will find you among the stars in the sky,
And in the fresh morning dew.
