(Hey, I'm a poet too, this is one of my best...)

Befreinded in the shadows by voices no one hears,
Listening to the whispers that crawl inside your ears.
Steeped in the memories that quickly fade away,
And thinking of a someone that you knew the other day.

A laugh, a smile, so quick and so well played,
They made you feel a something that you felt another day,
The hand reaching slowly toward a heart that once was yours,
And like the playful candle glimmer, they dance across the floor.

They crawl inside your mind, stealing you away,
Carrying dark emotions to a better, kinder day.
They give you what you long for but cut away your heart,
Slowly, they are smiling, they are taking you apart.

I look at you and smile at the pain you thought you knew,
The pain that crawled inside of and touched and played with you.
I want to hold you closer, but you are far away,
You are reaching into nothingness and thinking of those days.

So catch my tears in hourglasses as my thoughts begin to stray,
I smile for I can't recall the way we kissed the other day.
I watch, I'm helpless, you are branded on my mind,
And so beautifully you're fading, but you're leaving me behind.
