Wrap me in your protecting arms
Find that space below my collarbone and
Kiss my pain away
Rip open my flesh
Expose my ribcage, my aching heart
Drain my blood so I am cleansed of him
Fill me with your essence
Fill me with you
Fill me so I do not feel emptiness
Fill me so I am not scared
because I am terrified
I am terrified of my own emptiness
I am terrified of solitude
of being alone
of waking up in the middle of the night without him
of facing the new me
I am terrified of myself without him
I am terrified of me
