I Miss You

I take to bed my will at ease,
a spirit softly floating with the breeze.
Calmness in my heart, wars raging in my mind
setting the world ablaze, the flames so divine
that my spirit caught hold and drifted to its light.
Memorize, I surrender,
my tears tremble without a fight.
So strong am I when you were here,
when hope clings to every fiber of me,
when you were mine.
But now I take to bed alone
a scab remorse of what was us,
a shattered dream
and in the coldest of nights,
I whisper in bitter screams.
If only you heard…
If only you knew…
If only you care…
If only I said I love you,
I would not drown in such despair.
