Billowing and suffocating, br there it was- so many br treading and tearing it apart. br The black hole. br A pang of lonliness, hit br again and again like a stone br on sand. br I'm alone. br Don't you see? br Amid the black cloud of darkness. br br Stop br br One little glimmer you were, an ember. br A smile, spread wide into your eyes. br I would not be alone again, br I dared myself to hope, br Your smile spread wide into my heart. br Contagious, and full of affection. br I was yours and you were mine br each our own precious stone. br Was it love? br I let myself hope.... no br br Like an untrustworthy friend, br you made me the same stone again, br discarded and cast asunder, br left for the blackness to feed on me, br again. br As you proudly reveal to the world br your shiny new stone.
