Broken

I can feel you,

I can feel you right here next to me

as my hand sighs though the air

and flops onto my bed.

 

You're my blood,

you're flying through my body

you're sending impulses

through my head, and my heart.

 

It's 1:01 AM

and I am tired for lack of life

I miss you, and I am sorry.

I'm so in love with you.

I need you.

 

my bedside lamp flickers as your ghost flickers from sight

my eyes flutter shut as I realise you're no longer there

my right hand closes around my left,

because yours doesn't have a vacancy.

 

I keep losing my mind in the music,

because reality is too much, too wrong, too real.

 

I want you,

to love me to bits

but I'm in more pieces than a jigsaw puzzle already. I need you

to rearrange my mind

but I remain a jumble on the carpet

in front of a roaring fire

singeing me further.
