Bookends on a Ledge

by David Maurice

I watch the light
fading from your eyes
You turn to me
and all I see
is your misery

Let's stop this fight
These angry, senseless lies
Why can't we be as happy
as we hoped and dreamed?

I watch the light
fading from your eyes
You turn from me
and all I see
is my misery

Nicely written and expressed, well balanced piece, Dave. Can really feeel the pain radiating from the words.
