Skyfall

You have left a void in my heart

Today even my tears have run dry

But I know you are out there somewhere

And both of us share the same sky

I look for you in the clouds

Someday I hope I would see your face

People tell me that you would not return

And that you vanished without a trace

I loved you with all my heart

And you said that you loved me too

How could you just leave like that

Was what we shared ever true

At times I wish that I could fly

So that I can spot you from above

But soon the sky mocks me

It seems to have given up on our love

Every night I look up at the sky

Hoping that you are doing the same

Can you read my words on the blue canvas

Or have you already forgotten my name

I am standing here all alone

Awaiting your shadow on the sky

It is hard to survive by myself

But your thoughts help me get by

I am stuck in the beautiful past

Beyond it nothing I can recall

If comes a day when I would forget you

That would be the time when the sky shall fall

P.S: I had this crazy idea about associating the five elements of nature - fire, water, air, earth and sky to human emotions and love. And in the form of poetry. I already wrote about fire, water, air and earth. This is the final one in the series, sky.
