Member-only story
Between Dusk and Dawn
A life we built, brick by brick,
Crumbles like a house of clay.
Shattering me like a broken dream,
You are gone — too far away.
When the alarm goes off,
I get so annoyed.
I want to scream at you,
But there’s no one by my side.
The morning cup of coffee.
Reminds of your sleepy eyes.
How much I am in love with them,
Never before I realized.
Amidst the chaos of the day,
With a never-ending list of to-dos,
Not a moment passes by,
Without a fleeting thought of you.
Standing on the balcony,
I see the sun go down.
I miss you a little more,
And in your memories, I drown.
Evening brings thoughts,
That I try hard to outrun.
But shadows of you linger,
Long after the day is done.
The day passes,
But the night gets lonely.
I stare at the ticking clock,
Wondering why you still own me.
