The Soul Sanctuary: Fade Away

Sep 1, 2010

These are the terribly insignificant musings of Aishwarya Nagar at 6:03 AM

Heiroglyphics on tombs never fade

The hearts carved on trees never fade

A dot of permanent ink will never fade

The need for family will never fade.

But memories, so set in stone,

Dissolve into the jetstreams of the open sky

It's time that decides to wilingly pry

The happiness of our past from our hands.

Sitting silently sometimes,

Regurgitating the painful emotions of absence

Hating myself for forgetting, little by little,

The cost of love, pence by pence.

My apologies; I don't mean to forget you,

You just seem to fade away from my conscience..

Pixels of you disappeareing one by one,

And a blank canvas stares back with confidence.
