Red Flags

Within me lays a vacancy,- a searing pain deep in my heart. Despite how we had left things- I cannot stand being apart. This cavern in my chest- It aches for you, and only you. Your absence tears my soul, and leaves my insides black & blue. So many pricless moments- (I wouldn't) trade them for the world. But sometimes, dear, you you scare me... I watch as your darkness unfurls. You become a different person- lately, it's been moreso than not. Where did your softness go?- Don't think once that I forgot. It hasn't dissapeared, of course!- You still speak to me sweet nothings. You lift me to the skies- make sure I know that I'm worth something. Know in my heart you love me...- or maybe that's just what I hope. Just what are these red flags?- Where are they from? How do I cope? I'm sure things will be fine- we all have bad days afterall. You're just stressed, So I'll be here in case you ou fall. All that being said- it means it's not like this forever. I'll survive all of these storms- if it means we can be together.
