For Lonely Hearts in Darkness Across Oceans

If you cry my name in the night,
if you call out longingly and in silence, despise me,
forgive me my love!
For I am drowning in silence, drowning in the rays of a sun
that has ceased shining,
in the stars that no longer smile, in a moon that mocks my linings,
my mind mires in sorrow,
for what happiness can I write,
when I can but touch you in leaden images?
When your smile lasts only in photographs?
The depths of oceans are but a tenth,
of the tears my heart has tasted in your absence.

I am hungering for you between breaths,
I scream your name in my exhale,
my inhale moans your loss,
how long will this torture last?
Amor, come to my side, end this fast!
My vision fades to black and white,
without my love, sunsets bleed to a blight,
a memory of beauty once known,
now, only in dreams and photographs shown.
I but vaguely remember taste,
with you, I had roses in the morning, noon, and night,
now ashes have roses replaced,
now, to taste requires a flight.

Let emotion overwhelm an ocean.
As I am yours sofia,
then eres mia.
