I Still Cant Feel You On My Wings As We Fly

I’m empty inside when you’re next to me 
I feel alone even though you’re chasing me 
I hear your voice but there’s no one around
I’m in your presence but I don’t hear a sound

There’s no one here but you and I 
Why can’t I feel you on my wings as we fly

Got your love trapped and it wont get out
But there’s no evidence of you here beyond the shadow of a doubt
Even though your close you’re a million miles away
Tomorrow is forever but you live in yesterday

I want to see you how hard I try
But why can’t I feel you on my wings as we fly

Back to back or eye to eye 
I still can’t feel you or see you and I don’t know why
You follow my steps but I see no track
I carry you everywhere but there’s nothing on my back

Are you alive or did you die
I still can’t feel you on my wings as we fly

good poem, i know how this feels, or they stick to your own wings when it is nothing but based on lies and dishonesty...
