Oct 2015
I went down there
To feel closer to you
Only to be surrounded
By strangers.
Then, I began to notice
I was now one of them
To myself.
So I knock back the *****
In a futile attempt to forget
How much I crave you intensely.

Moved around lifelessly
To familair tunes
With some phony guy
Trying to cut through
My barbed wire.

All I can think of is you,
On this smoke infested
Blindingly-lit dance floor,
Where we once lost control
Endlessly.

There is a connection
That will always remain
Until I am rotting beneath.
I want to scream
Your name out to everyone
I meet,
Tell them I'm bleeding
From head to toe
Without you kissing my soul.
