Jan 2017
The sun is setting on the horizon of us
The dismal tides have crashed ashore
The bell has tolled it's final sound
This is a hurt so real I can feel it in my throat
My skin craves your touch
My soul aches for your embrace
And my mind wanders in search of you
Only to fall on deaf ears and empty pillows
The sheets have run cold
Your scent no longer lingers
My hands don't know what to do with themselves
The worst part of love isn't the initial heartbreak
It's the void left behind afterwards
