Lines & Shades

I took the pen in my hand again and started to draw some lines

I tried to connect them but they were scattered all over the page

I shaded the sides but they where hiding the lines

I looked at the lines and the shades and I saw a face

A familiar face that I used to know

Although I can’t tell who are you but I guess I know you

I can see the eyes looking so deep through me

Asking questions that I can’t answer

I am hallucinating, am I not?

I know you can hear me but I can’t be sure you are here

I wish I can touch you

I wish I can hold you

I wish I can tear that paper and bring you back to life

I lost you forever and that is the truth

I must face it, this is not where you belong

I looked back on the lines and you were gone

Wish you could stay much longer

But I know you weren’t meant to stay
