Collateral Damage

I miss being in love with you the electricity we once had ceases to exist you feel different now pieces of you have been torn away and locked in a space where I cant find them i'm reaching out in cloud of mist that your tears have created i'm aimlessly grasping at the old memories we shared fighting the cool beads of moisture that sting my eyes you put up your defenses you made yourself distant people say that if you truly love someone distance doesn't matter. but when that person is emotionally absent and has placed themselves in the hands of those that fabricate the idea of being whole you have no choice but to say goodbye. I want you near me I want you to tell me that you care but you're so numb to emotion that i'm just collateral damage and you're to invested in the darkness to see my light
