Halls are empty
silence echoes past laughter
traces of your smile
we would dance
each seeking solace
a midnight embrace
sometimes we open up
staring at your feet
tenderness melting ice
believe what you want
response to my doubt
lips ever slight pout
our closeness grand
before eyes saw clear
distance begs questions
there is no sun
yet shadow is cast
hollow eyes scream
the world ended
a pebble remained
still warmth it held
to be for you
distant midnight wish
might you stare at a sunless stage
