i miss you
my teeth ache
my bones are confused
they'd grown so close
my flesh cries like children
i speak to them in hush
it's not fair they say
bring him back!
beg him stay!
it's not up to me. i try to explain
but mind can't make heart understand
it does not whimper
its one lashed eye keeps blinking
it insists simply with quiet disbelief
LOVE IS NOT WITHOUT YOU
I go back today
back to where I must move from
my toothbrush no longer welcome
my clothing canker sores
my altar a wound
whose bleeding can only stop
when there's nothing left
to remind him of me
(I don't wanna go)
This became, You Were Meant For Me
