i sent out a searchlight
every single night.

to bring you back to me.
i took everything you left
as if it was one giant clue.

and you know what knocked me down
was the fact i couldn't figure it out.

but what truly destroyed me
was the fact you saw my attempts
and left me stranded
in the dark blissful sea.
