Away

I don't know.

He floated away,

Like the coloured patterns,

Behind my tight shut eyelids.

He slipped away, like water,

From between my fingers.

He flew away, like a scavenger,

Never to return.

Like embers he glowed,

Like smoke he vanished.

He never was mine,

Like the smell of earth before the rain,

He faded,

Back to where he came from,

The earth.
