                    By Desire Shaw



Who knew the house would be so quiet

Without you here, silence coats everything


I miss the fuss you threw before every meal

I miss the way you would skip around

Asking me to pick you up, give you a kiss


I miss the time you took to get ready for bed

Too long in my opinion, always laughing it off


I couldn't wait for you to leave

So I'd finally get some peace

Able to do my own thing again once again


But without you here, all I feel is an emptiness

Eating into my soul, tearing me to bits and pieces


The sadness bores into my heart

As I realise that my naive fear came true

The fear I felt when I first held you


You had given me the peace I craved

I had finally lost you
