You'Re Gone

Cold as stone
Frozen in a wasteland
I hate life as it is
Bland nothingness since you left

Two hearts once bound together
Souls connected
by a strong knotted cord
Now cut apart
Severed
Left to freeze
Cold & dry
Shriveled up, barely alive

Bring me forward around the fire
To warm
This bitter heart of stone

No fire to warm my soul
Light a match
Revive me deep within
I long for something else to fill that space
That is empty
Now that you're gone
