The reality gets pale

The moon in the east
did never go up in smoke
and you never asked
if I believed in God

we
at the cemetery
and the tears
create the mist

all that is left
of the grief
are withered flowers
and burned out candles

but your smile
still takes away
the longing
for you hand
in the silence of my nightmares

the others can't see you
any more
in the clouds
which you called home

your breath
surrounds me
and the reality
gets pale

the voice dances
beside me
and underneath the grass
is nothing
living

Still
you don't need to ask me

This is so very delicately woven and an enjoyable read. Reminds me of someone.
