Dark & Stormy #100creativedays Day 64

"I'm huddled
Hidden
In the dark.

Straining
My eyes
I just make out the outlines
Of my fingers
Silly little fingers
That used to weave
Between your fingers
That used to weave
Stories in the air
Dreams for us
Silly little fingers

Why did I shout?
And stamp
my silly little feet?
Tears rolling down my cheeks
Heart tearing to pieces
Watching you shrug
And leave

Cheeks smeared with tears
Cheeks that you used to stroke
A heart stopped
My heart used to hammer in my chest
All I feel now is a hollow ache
As I think of
My silly little fingers
Weaving stories in the air"
