Washing Away Her Mark On Me

So high all the time
Trying to wash her mark away
Like waves washing away a sand castle
Waves of smoke washing away a masterpiece
Deep in my skin like a scar
My mind consumed 
Getting lost in my mind looking for memories of u
I can't believe I'm back at this point
The last one should have had a, to be continued....
Exorcism would leave only the shadow of my former self
Ur memory is beyond the abilities of professional help
Let me take this where I've been meaning to go...
I want to cuddle on the couch and watch old black and whites with u
I want to sit on a patio with u under the sun
Teasing eachother and having fun
There when I need a smile to bring me back to life
I want u wrapped in my arms all night
A glimpse of ur face and I'm flooded with emotion
Hearing ur name causes the butterflies to go in motion
News Bulletin!!
My heart & mind set u aside tonight
It's kind of a relief to write
The next time we meet will hopefully find us well
Hopefully, I don't have another wrinkle
Find what u are looking for
I will be here waiting for u to walk through my door
Space and time is what we need....
So for now, I must let you go
