Flying overhead,
a meteor shoots across the sky whilst I rub my eyes,
and a weariness creep into my body and my head,
yes, flying overhead, birds in the sky less tired than I,
but I am not quite ready for my bed,
yet, I should lay down to sleep,
but these thoughts of you,
they keep floating around inside me and disturbing me,
and I cannot help but miss you,
and this pain will not go away,
and it grows with every single minute,
and so too these thoughts,
that I seem to be unable to push away,
and what can I say,
what can I say,
except I loved you,
except I loved you dearly,
but you left me on a summer’s day,
you left me forever never to be seen again,
because you shuffled off your mortal coil,
which is a deadly sin,
and here,
here I sit with a sad face,
and how I wish these thoughts would go away,
but here I am about to go to sleep,
yet in my dreams I am sure,
unfortunately,
they will continue to plague me until the break of day.
