What they left behind

Silent weeping caused me red eyes

Tearstains are evaporating on the bedroom floor

My heart pounding faster than war drums

My ears still ring from the sudden silence



The intense conversations haunt me still

Every room reminds me of a tragic scene

I tremble as I touch the walls

The house feels empty now



All the love has died and bled out

The room is filled with sorrow

The eerie sound of a person in fear

Is still lingering in the hallway



I sigh and try to move on

My mind won’t let me forget

All is quite, but now I feel it all

The sadness has been left behind as they parted
