Love Doesn'T Live Here

love doesn't live here anymore
if it ever even did before
my heart pounding against this door
but love doesn't live here anymore

packed its bags and moved away
no forwarding address, nothing to say
its been gone for a month of days
a black and white still from
an overexposed frame

my heart is breaking from this deceit
all is different than it believed
need to figure away to excrete
as it makes its sad retreat
