Hold me

Hold me in your arms once more
This feeling inside is a a deep dark hole
I feel like I'm trapped behind a cell door
I feel like I'm beginning to be numb at the core

It's been awhile since you've gone away
No one to make me feel alive
Your lack of words and actions show you don't want to stay
The strings that hold me together are starting to fray

My heart seems to think that you'll come back
You're deathly silence tells me otherwise
But the lies I tell myself are making a huge stack
Now I can hear my heart starting to crack

The story is over now,
or is it?
Maybe your mind will turn on pivot
I wrote you a message, what if I were to send it?

I will confess I miss you
More than I thought I would
I will admit I dream of you
But only to wake up to find the dreams weren't true

I feel as though I'm alone
No matter how many beings are around me
I'm impatiently staring at my phone
Hoping you'll call and make feel at home

I guess I should give up and stop hoping
I don't want to give you up
But I feel as though it's my only firm of coping
And now my lonely heart is moping
