Cold skies

And shivering sighs;

Lonely nights

And dimmed lights;

A bit of wine

To help pass the time;

To make me forget

That I've lost what was mine

Shadowed walls

And empty halls;

Blinking reminder:

Ten missed calls;

Another drink, please;

To help ease the loss I'd never see

Forever living in this shroud of mystery

Sunken eyes

And sullen sighs;

Holding in my hands what was ours

Listening to the passing of the quiet hours,

Paying no mind to the silent man

The drunken one with his head in his hands

Moonlit rooms

And thick grey fumes;

Taking a deep breath of my last cigarette

Burning it away like all of my regret

Closing my eyes as I hope to forget

Feeling the sting of what is no more

As the empty wine bottle hits the floor

Hazy thoughts

And stifled coughs;

Embers so red

And tears of remorse;

"Why could I not be there to change destiny's course?"

A broken man

And his broken memories:

A disease with no known remedies;

Forever doomed to be only half,

Never a whole;

Slowly taking its toll on his mind and soul

Until the day he loses it all;

A man no more;

Simply a vestige of what came before
