Dec 2013
Days seem dimmer while you're away.

I had not, will not, ask you to stay.

Though my heart woefully cries out for you.

I'm missing a part of me I was never meant to lose.

Although tears do not fight for the will to fall free.

My unwavering eyes are blind to see.

These ears and hands will guide me back to you.

But I hear not, feel not, the words that belong to you.

Have you faded along with the wind again?

I just want this pain rooted deep inside of me to end.

Give me the strength to rise with each sun.

Come back to me before the damage is done.
