"tip toe towards you.
there you was;
lost in your thoughts,
gazing up
at the endless sky.

you looked so beautiful,
y'know?
i couldn't stop
looking at your face.
even with your flaws,
i still loved you.

holding your hand
to feel you again,
i felt so alive.
but you were dead:
i could see it in those eyes.

softly saying your name
yet still no response.
are you okay?
i stared at you but
you never looked back.
not once.
not at all.

'never been better'.
you finally uttered
as you left me –
bewildered and alone,
upon this endless sky."
