Shattered faces
Empty hearts

Longing of something that once was
The tears start to flow
As one you just began to know
Whispers softly
Adieu

They leave you alone
To scream
Pointlessly through dusty windows
Pounding until
Your knuckles are red

That life
The one you wished for with them
Slowly passes you by

With snapped photos
Of forgotten memories
They come back to haunt us

Secrets are out
Spilled on the pavement about you

They remind of what once was
What could have been
Then as we give it pause
We seem to realize it will never be
