you told me i was a burden

9 1 1
                                    

i didnt plan on going out tonight
or maybe i did
once i was without your arms around me

its hard to describe this loneliness
whether i miss your shape in my
twin size bed
that barely fit us both
or your shape in my life
friend, lover, confidante
although you havent been that in a while

i think that the emptiness in this bed
equals the sum of the emptiness inside
this cracked body of mine
another reminder
of the separation
that you chose
