It hurts

my heart

to know

That I'm missing you

While you're

still

*here

"Okay" I said
There was no mess
No fuss
No anger
Everything was
Fine
On the outside
Inside
Something *broke

Standing before you
I am lost
Surrounded by endless mists
Directionless
My breath becomes gasps
My hands tremble
I stumble forward
But you are gone
Vanished
In the Mists

I want some to talk to

I want someone to hold on to

I want someone to wake up to

I want someone to love

Like a train off its tracks
Crashing into Monday
What happened to the weekend?

I wished upon
a falling star
But I did not know
the stars were in your eyes
Nor that the star which fell was mine
Wrapped in a tear
falling from your eye
