Absence

You have barely left me
Although I have barely let you leave
You're the wind flowing through the trees
You're the torment
But you're what sets me free

When you're absent
I don't know myself
When the smile of light
is on my face
I'm a stranger to myself

It hurts too much
to think of those dream-like days
It hurts , it hurts
Cause they've forever gone away

Don't tell me it'll get better
or that you'll stand by my side forever
Cause no one ever stays long enough to even bandage my wounds
And even then , I can't breathe
And even then , all I can do is bleed

You have barely left me
And I'm glad it is so ,
dear darkness
