De dor

I opened my eyes... I could hear the birds singing outside my door, a out of tune orchestra, like a sea of bells in the wind, each with its own melody. They always make me smile and I love laying in bed, in the dark, with my eyes closed, listening to them... my private concerto. Sleepily I hugged my pillow. It has lost your scent a long time ago. Your image in my memory has faded as well. I wished my head would find your shoulder again, my arms needed your warm and tender embrace. I wanted to open my eyes again in the dark and find you looking at me, smiling. Now I feel like a fool again. I reached out my arms towards you, but again they were left empty. My heart that raced at your embrace has rushed with my tears of despair. Without an explanation, you have turned away from me. In your eyes, I am a stranger. That which felt so familiar is now a distant feeling...
