The
tea
is
cold
upon
the
tray
tonight
I
trace
the
shadow
where
you
used
to
stand
The
moonlight
flickers
with
a
fading
light
I
reach
for
you
but
cannot
find
your
hand
We
built
a
palace
out
of
whispered
dreams
Now
quiet
hallways
echo
back
my
name
Nothing
is
ever
truly
as
it
seems
When
love
retreats
and
leaves
behind
the
flame
Oh
Loni,
the
stars
are
weeping
in
the
dark
I’
m
lost
without
the
fire
of
your
spark
I
carry
memories
like
stones
upon
my
chest
Trying
to
find
a
place
for
us
to
rest
But
you
are
gone,
a
ghost
within
the
rain
And
I
am
tethered
to
this
silent
pain
I
keep
your
letters
in
the
velvet
box
Locked
away
from
all
the
world
outside
I’
m
turning
keys
inside
these
rusted
locks
With
nowhere
left
for
all
this
grief
to
hide
The
scent
of
jasmine
lingers
on
the
breeze
It
feels
like
yesterday
you
were
so
near
Now
I
am
falling
to
my
trembling
knees
Counting
the
hours
since
you
disappeared
Oh
Loni,
the
stars
are
weeping
in
the
dark
I’
m
lost
without
the
fire
of
your
spark
I
carry
memories
like
stones
upon
my
chest
Trying
to
find
a
place
for
us
to
rest
But
you
are
gone,
a
ghost
within
the
rain
And
I
am
tethered
to
this
silent
pain
Did
I
not
love
you
with
a
soul
so
deep?
Did
I
not
promise
you
the
world
and
more?
Now
in
the
hours
when
I
cannot
sleep
I’
m
staring
blankly
at
the
closing
door
Everything
changes,
everything
ends
Broken
like
branches
when
the
storm
descends
The
city
lights
are
blurring
into
grey
I
walk
the
paths
we
used
to
call
our
own
I
wish
that
I
could
chase
the
clouds
away
But
I
am
standing
in
the
cold
alone
Your
laughter
haunts
the
corners
of
the
room
A
melody
that’
s
fading
into
dust
I’
m
standing
here
inside
the
heavy
gloom
Lamenting
all
the
remnants
of
our
trust
Oh
Loni,
the
stars
are
weeping
in
the
dark
I’
m
lost
without
the
fire
of
your
spark
I
carry
memories
like
stones
upon
my
chest
Trying
to
find
a
place
for
us
to
rest
But
you
are
gone,
a
ghost
within
the
rain
And
I
am
tethered
to
this
silent
pain
Goodbye
to
the
dreams
we
never
knew
Goodbye
to
the
ghost
of
me
and
you
Just
echoes
left...
just
echoes
left
for
me
Loni...
Loni... (
Music
fades
out
with
a
final
haunting
flute
note)
