I thought of you again today
It was harder than the day before last
Slowly creeping into my mind, a flower once
blossomed
Now is gone with its location removed from my sightYou left
And I was left in an ache larger than you may ever
know
I remember the night you drank in my car
Your glee was pure, genuineSo was our laugher
You held my hand, full of loveThen I remember that Sunday
Then fifteen days thereafter
When that love was gone, much came to me
forgive me for I was not
PatientDo I wait now? Wait for you
Returning to the form you once held
Neither of us shall
Impossible, for time changes allBut time has not changed my heart
It yearns for you
Begs to be kissed by no other than you
Return we cannot, but rebuild we canYour memory
Difficult to forget
It's grasp holds on to me, unable to let go
Or unwillingStrong and unforgiving
Yet sweet and tender
O' how my beating heart begs
Thoughts of repairing your faith in us.
TogetherYet if we rebuild, the cracked soul I carry
Will not be fixed
Only I
Can mend those woundsYou wanted to take care of me, perhaps you have
Leaving me
Opened the door to my root
My soul was exposed and I could see it, see the
damageDo not fret
For this pain I feel in your absence
Is a blessing
You have been one tooYet,
realizing my yearn and screams for you
are coming from my wounded soul
Seeing the truth?Does not quiet my heart
It wants you
It misses you
It looks upon the sky when it feels the worstAnd the sky, it smiles back
