gone like a falling star.

gone.

like a ring, down the drain

like a crashed hard-drive
files wiped

gone like

a sock in a dryer

a piece of paper in a fire
turned to ashes

gone like a

falling star

wave on the beach
crashed once, disappeared forever

i'm gone
fallen
tumbling
spinning

head over heels

i'm so gone over you

like a falling star
like a piece of paper in the fire.
