The lamp switched on, and then off again,
It was a repetitive motion.
The streets were silent at this hour,
In her head though, there was a commotion.
The evening had gone pretty well,
His hands led, her legs followed.
His blue eyes twinkled, her smile never faded
Hopelessly, another sleeping pill she swallowed.
He walked around aimlessly in his studio,
The picture of her face etched in his mind .
She'd become the reason for his existence,
A gem he'd never again find!
The sound of a bell startled her.
Excited, she grabbed for the phone.
"Come over, Darling. I miss you.
Without you by my side, I'm all alone."

Her secretary rang the bell again.
Hands heavy with files of pending accusations.
She glanced at the screen, one last time.
"No notifications."
