After You Left
After you left, I fortified my heart by building barriers to shield against the infiltrators. After you left, I sealed every door, every wound, where wicked love once dared to seep inside me. After you left, I made my refuge in the darkness, a sanctuary hidden where no one could find me.

Years have passed and I still remember the fragrance of your hair, the scent you favoured, the warmth of your skin, the taste of your lips, the abundance of your eyes and the elixir in your smile, as if it was just yesterday. I still dream about you, about us, every night and trace our past in the dark hoping you'll return, unbar these gates and melt my frozen heart which still awaits you.
