Longing For You

Layers of dust

cover your photo

Words weren't enough

But money was


Feelings disregarded,

figures delved deep


Was it my heart

or yours

that was made of stone?


Now I sit here.

Cold rooms,

frigid nights.

Sleeping pills 

Losing the fight


Temptress to all,

lover to none

Was it the first hello

where it all went wrong?


Whispered sentences

hold no meaning.

Stranger to all

and hooked on a feeling.
