My love,

you don't know how much I need you.

My love,

can you see the love in my eyes?

Can you hear me cry?

In the middle of the night?

Do they echo off the walls and into your ears?

Does it make you die

like how I die when you weep?

My love,

Can you see the ghosts behind my eyelids?

Can you see the shadows pulling at me from behind?

Can you hear the pain in my voice?

Can you hear the need?

Or does it sound whiny?

Does it sound annoying?

Can you hear me when I say your name?
