Echoes

can’t forget about you 
occupy my mind
all these thoughts of you
taking up my time
always so close
but just out of reach
I breathe you in
your taste so sweet
I can feel you
feel the burn of your heat
draw me near
I swear it’s your voice
the whispers I hear
in the darkness
whispers 
breaking through the quiet
echoes of our time 
they were only dreams
waking to the silence
it's too much to take
silence
the silence is deafening
