Once upon a time
she existed in your life.
Her smile to chase away your frown.
Your laughter was her favourite sound.

Never a main character
though she showed up once in a while
a bright little star in your night sky.

All too soon,
her glow has reached her doom.
Why the sudden gloom?
Through your window she can see,
there is no you in the room.

Where are you now?
Has she caused something somehow?
The neon street-lights have defeated her beam
Now she's just growing dim.

Oh, well.
What else is to dwell?
Nothing more than a wishful thinking.
Then why is she still hoping?

Dull, how cruel.
Perhaps it's time for her
to hide behind the black clouds
and pretend it never mattered.

Once upon a time,
she existed in your life.
Just a name, a face on the frozen screen,
a distant voice on the machine.

It didn't take that long
for her to be erased
as if there was nothing wrong
and she was just another face.
