~Missing Piece~

It's funny
how simple
thing's in
life mean
the most

the sacrifice
wordless screams
shaping, reshaping
a glance
is all
it takes

it breaks
like the
softest wave

all that
is left
are shadows
cruel wanting

years unfurl
like the
petals of
the falling
flowers where
I had met
you

it's here
that difference
the next
everything can
change

seems like
I'm always
looking for
the missing
piece trying
to get back
to where
the wind
drops

the sun
burns the
moon that
turns this
secret on
my skin
