You fill the emptiness,
All around me,
Your whispers echoing,
Over the soft lull of waves,
Slipping from the shore,
Your eyes shine,
All the shades of the ocean,
Glazed with golden sun,
Faded of the horizon,
Try as I may,
To stay beside you,
My eyes are closing,
There will be no tomorrow

Yesterday feels so far away,
But the pain,
Of saying goodbye,
Is still as raw as ever,
With every step,
Every inch between us,
I feel the world grow colder,
Consumed by the darkness,
Don't walk away

When I look in your eyes,
It's clear,
You mean everything to me,
I can't imagine,
Being without you

Street lights for stars,
And smokey air,
Fogging the black curtains,
Of the sky,
I'm surrounded by night,
While I long for the day

I close my eyes,
And count the seconds,
That you're gone,
There's nothing else I can do,
But lie awake,
Because I miss you

When it's quiet,
I can still hear your voice,
Soft and lingering,
Surrounding me,
I can still feel you,
Faded yet fixed,
In my mind,
Your hands,
Cool on my skin,
And your arms around me,
Reality dawns,
Suns become stars,
You're gone,
When I most need you,
To stay

When I'm not with you,
The sunlight grows cold,
And the hours of the night,
Lengthen into dark, infinite days,
The emptiness,
Swallows me whole
