Theme: The aftershock of breakup

As the row went straight from 12 to 12,
The midnight hour had come, all is still.
The world's asleep, yet my mind's astir,
A silent symphony of thoughts poured in,
As the night grows deep,
So does my tears.

Like stars who only glint at night,
And fade at sunrise.
I can still see the glimpse of you,
As our memories started to play,
As I started to weep in,
My heart aches from the longing.

As I lingered in the darkness,
Searching for your fading warmth embrace.
Now all's left is coldnessβ€”
Grieving to my heart, piercing it, piece by pieceβ€”my soul shattered from the sight.
Thinking of you is poison in mind.

At midnight, when all is dark and still,
The world seems to pause, a moments thrill.
A time to ponder, to hope, to heal.
And I sit in the silence, the moon whispers;
Love one man in silence,
And you will lose yourself in secret.
