Lonely (Missing You)

And it hurts

Each roll of aching loneliness

My fingertips tingle numbly

And it feels like I can't breathe

Like there's a hand wrapped around my throat

It pains me to swallow back these lies

I choke on them

I cough and sputter

So hard it hurts

Tears sting my eyes and I retch

I writhe desperately away from the grasping fingers

But they only grip tighter, cutting off my breathing entirely

The scene fades to black and only my hoarse, rasping breaths echo in my head

Painfully

And suddenly

Everything is gone
