In Your Absence

Ramilyn posted under PenMuse-39 Poetry on 2022-03-20



Behind a smiling face, a pale heart lies Within, a spirit lives on -broken, cold For when you left, by God, you scarred him deep Forgetting you seems hard, he claims, but tries How can a love once dearly shared break ties And throw away a future both did plan; What use is love or loving someone if Behind a smiling face a pale heart lies? I know not all the answers; so his eyes - Eyes that glimmer in sadness -hurting, sore So if you ask me how he feels, I'd say Forgetting you seems hard, he claims, but tries Behind a smiling face a pale heart lies, A shattered soul, a life to heal because Forgetting you seems hard, he claims, but tries.
