Woke up today
And finally realized
That something inside of me
Has been dead for some time
An empty space
An echo
A critical part of my being
Gone with out a trace
It almost worries me
That's this hole
Has become quite comfortable
It's numb now you see
It almost worries me
I still wake up
happy to see a new day
That gap is on autopilot
Cold and mechanical
While the rest of me
Is warmer than the peak of summer
Frozen inside
Warm on the out
I wonder if my loved ones
Notice the change
They've said nothing
Of the vague glimmer in my eyes
That use to shine like the milky way
Has all but barely faded
Numb
Missing
Far far away
