(2014)
I awoke in the dark next to you and more alone than ever I was amazed to hear your heart beating from
I have whispered your name into the air so many times it has become the breeze that blows
You were the wind beneath my wings but I was Icarus so all I did
There is something to be said of a true friend One who will pull the knife from your back One who will stitch the wounds
The road is long and winding like nothing you can imagine Too many off ramps to count but too few in hindsight
It must be a wednesday or a friday or any day at all for I am painfully aware of the wo… that consumes me
Everyday I lived out a song written just for you But you could
I wish you had told me that on the good days kissing you would make me think that I knew what happiness was and on the bad days
There seems to be a drought in my… but who knows if it is the cause or the result of the war raging within me
Everyday I visit the only writers block I know to hone my words and wit and help them cut deeper into the skin
I feel empty unceasingly until you come along and fill my heart to bursting
I’ve always been at the very least a little caught up on everything about you This idea of you
I see poems that need to be written scrawled in the shape of your smile and the lines of your face
I spend my nights wishing on every star in the sky that you are alive and well
I don’t remember any anesthesia after talking with you but I woke up stitched back
