Viola Grey - The Empty Room

I see the light fade
in your sea greens
as you ponder
unknown troubles
hidden behind
a sullen smile.

Where do you wander
alone in your mind,
turning away
from a heated touch,
cooling your heels
upon a lonely path.

Come back, sweet lover,
empty is this air
without breathing
life into you.
I miss you more
than we ever were,
return to this room...
I miss you.
