Without you

Sometimes I have to look at your pictures.

 

I wonder what you look like now

 

Right now

 

laying on your side in the middle of your bed, eyes closed

 

greasy hair

 

shirt off, boxers

 

arm outstretched

 

blankets rippled

 

alone, or maybe not

 

i like to think you are.

 

Not that I'm alone all the time

 

Because I haven't been alone this whole time

 

But I feel so alone in those times

 

Or I remember how alone I am

 

Without you

 

I've been too far for too long

 

I long to come back to this planet

 

and live in your world again

 

wasting the summer away

 

waiting for you all day

 

then going out at night

 

and coming back to your bed

 

so we could be alone

 

now you're alone

 

and you do all the same things without me

 

And I try to make do

 

Without you
