Evanescence

My heart of glass, couldn’t stand the heat;
Of reality’s rage on the deceptive treats.
Days ran vintage like a celluloid reel,
I never saw the profit under forever’s seal.

Gold times rusted like an iron key,
Toxic it was, but I was still me.
The scars have aged and paled like death;
I suck in pain with every breath.

And I talk to the old times still at night,
That time we used to stay up to make up and fight.
And I gotta be real it’s no longer true,
They miss the dead the way I miss you.

I can’t confront the unread  texts.
Each time I try something breaks.
A part of me wants to see you again,
And a part is trying to elude that pain.

Together on the crest and together at the trough,
But then it just faded and I don’t know how.
Those evanescent memories still haunt me at night;
But life flows on,  we’ll move on alright!
