What Was Left

I feel that a light is dying somewhere inside this poor heart that somewhere inside me there is a hole widening and growing, falling aside that someone is missing in this cold life then i remember that it is you it's just an emptiness an absent caress during the night and somewhere there was a light that faded out out beyond a hole that consumed my heart my heart that aches as if it were hollowed a collection of memory gone that followed all the love that disappeared into this hole that you left inside of me somewhere and i want to fill it with something other than my love but love is too quick to catch unless you stick around to help me only if you could only if you could but now i'm just this hole this dark nothing swallowing up at what life has left me until all that is left is this hole
