she lay in his arms
remembering when they
loved each other
and cared for
nothing
no one
but each other
and now she lay in his white arms
as his cool skin touched hers
she closed her eyes
and blinked away
the tears
that came to her in memory
in love
in hope
in the sadness that longed for him
once more
and the soul
that missed him
so much
but the memory slowly faded away,
he vanished
nothing left but
a wisp of smoke
where her lover once stood
he was once older
now he was still
14
and she was
35
but she missed him
and now even the ghost
was gone forever
and so she sat
and cried
the crash
the gunfire
the smoke
and the body laying on the ground
a lilly on their chest
nothing but the flower and a broken window
remained
nobody knew
they had been
loners
on their own
no friends
no family
so they ran to be together
but now he was gone
and so she sat
on this raining night
and cried
