Goodbye

Why’d you leave so suddenly; tore the air from inside of me. Say anything but the final sentence. I think I lost my final fight, all of my hope is out of sight; I think I’ll take another drive. So I drove home at a hundred miles an hour just to see what it’s like to fly. I know you so better than the city in the rear view, I drive to eliminate the ball that I’m chained to. I wake up again, feel this pain, it’s always the same . I just wish I could feel some love; feel like I’ve been stabbed with a million shards. Can’t track time but I know it’s been a while. You got darkness in your mind. Where the have you been, I been calling your name in your sleep since May. I still lie awake at night; and I feel the weight, black and white. I don’t want to miss you anymore. I’m lovin you, lovin you against my will. And I keep coming back for more to fuel the fires in my fantasy. And I’m waiting for your love, to feel your heartbeat; and I am aching to hold you now.
