As the dark conquers
This lethargic heart
I feel suffocated
By sheer nostalgia
Yet the ember flickers
Inside this soul
It holds the light
The love for you
The revival flows
As fireflies
illuminating the gloom
Uplifting my spirit
Being alone
I feel solitude
Seeing the silhouette
Of your countenance
If only I can restore
The bright memoirs
We savored together
Could have been tonight
