When things vanish

They sound like a door opening
They smell like me when I go out
They look like a melting ice
When things vanish

They feel like the distance in me
They taste like deadly poison
That killed the love for you in me
When things vanish

They look like blurry memories
They seem like dead moments we shared
They feel like the ending love
When things vanish

They look like me walking away from you
