IF ONLY YOU WERE HERE

The late-night breeze slips through The cracks in my door Wrapped in sheets, stuck here Memories of you flood my mind. Like diving into an underwater cave My thoughts delve deeper and deeper The more they plunge, the darker it gets Restoring memories long erased. I’m there now, that night you cried Right after we made love for the first time in the dark. The harder I tried to console you The further you slipped away, turning cold and blue. If only you were here, tonight We could revisit that very night. This time, I'd go slower, gentler Avoiding the issue that sparked our fight.
