Missing

Swallowing sickness Perfecting the pain Reaping my happiness The killer not slain Don’t leave me begging I won’t be left on my knees Stay here evermore Time forever will freeze I feel you in my mind This sick, gray place I reach out to touch you All I find is dark space The music of your language Changing my cynical heart Your glorious mind Discerns the eminence of art But such a distance Leaves great detriment in my soul Knowing time keeps us apart Leaves my existence a saturnine hole Just promise you’ll think of me I will wait outside Tally days on the wall Till the sentence subsides
