Today, I Need You
I write to calm my spinning head
to stop the pain and kill the dread.
Thoughts flood in, today’s the day.
I still can’t breathe when you’re away.
Yes, it's another one of those
when countenance I can’t compose!
Slipping away to the place unseen
flooded by an insufficient memory.
Tonight, words said will change everything
but I have not your voice to kill the pain.
