You Were Here

You were here once.
Right here beside me.
Always smiling,
And like the stars, you shone.
A gentle and warm light.
As everything became black, as it all fell apart.
Your wings of crystal shattered,
And turned into dust.
Was it all a dream?
Were you really here?
Among the ruins, I forever wander.
Forever alone, lost in thought,
In the dream-like memories of your smile.
When the world was thrown into chaos,
I lost you in the chaos surrounding us.
And as it all turned black,
Everything became hazy and distant.
Though for a moment, was it you I saw?
With your crystal wings, that glow with a gentle light.
Watching over me, as I became lost within my mind.
You were here once.
Right here beside me.
If you are real, will I find you?
Or will I only find a dream?
As I watch the dream-like memories play.
You are always smiling,
And like the stars, you shone.
With a gentle and warm light.
As everything became black, as it all fell apart.
Your wings of crystal shattered,
And turned into dust.
At that moment, you truly were a star.
Though I am lost, with only your face within my mind.
I wander forever among the ruins of the world.
Searching for you, hoping, longing,
For you to be here beside me.
You were here once.
Right here beside me.
As I was for you.
And as I hold this fragment of your shattered wings.
I feel as if, I am one step closer to you.
