Wilting flowers stare from the desk,
Smiling faces lost their playful glow;
So many things cloud my mind,
Mostly questions with answers you should know.

Lately, it seems the light doesn't turn off
And the coffee just will not brew;
Sleep doesn't want me, I don't want it,
I just need a break from you.

I had you for a moment, in my arms,
When I turned around to help my family
You disappeared the way shadows do at night,
Still there, just playing me so foolishly.

Ever growing disappointment in love
Just does not feel right anymore;
You showed me pain, I found hope again,
Don't come back, ill only show you to the door
