I wonder if you've noticed The colors in your eyes, Once such vibrant blue and gold Now resemble greyer skies The lights which used to dance within Have faded over time Your once familiar smile Now a gruesome pantomime So now we stand as strangers And although I search your face The person I remember Is gone, without a trace You're just a lifeless doll A broken, empty shell Another soulless wanderer With a story you can't tell |

everyone has those sad and disappointed moments, the important fact is, don't allow them to dictate who you are. Great truth and poem. |

Sad to witness one so broken and empty. Even more so when it's someone we love. Very nice to read you... |
