Analysis of My Sadly Familiar Abyss
She sits there,
Always seeming to stare.
Her familiar eyes,
Where happiness dies.
With every glance I reminisce,
My memory an empty abyss.
A mother entity,
A considerable piece of my identity.
And yet I remain heartbroken,
Despite not a word spoken.
Your departure at the time was insignificant,
Now it's an unforgettable incident.
Your beauty is sorrow,
Maybe I'll see you in the morrow.
