Painful Goodbyes

Cold body nestles itself in A cozy warm blanket Under the spell of a swaying moon I lose myself in this empty room Surrounded by darkness Memories of you that once swoon Slowly begin to fade As the hollowness inside Insists on keeping me awake Distance so cold Seeps into my bones as desolate tears Have penned in my soul Painful verses and prose So much time has gone by I search to find small Glimpses of our lives entwined I can no longer make out your face But a part of me keeps searching to find you anyway Come morning I will curse my own life For who says half dead Is the same as being alive So many times I try to wish you away but For me, it's like you never left my side
