Words fail to tell you how I miss you
They fail to tell how I yearn for the love we had

My heart's upon the ground
My head has started to pound
I want you to myself
But you sat my heart on some dusty shelf

I thought our love was pure
so yellow hearts shall store
the lovely name
that burns my throat to say

Amber is such a beautiful color
but I can stand it no longer
For it reminds me too much
Of what I thought was a safe touch

I see you everyday
and the pain will not go away
Not even crystals can stop this
so I give up perfect bliss

I confided in you my happiness
But now I'm filled with loneliness
Childish games I played
I just wish you would have stayed

Even when I've written a poem about you
Words fail to do what I need
