The seconds drag by like hours as I lie awake tonight,
With your ghost haunting my every thought.
The time on my phone reads 03:34.
The rain on the roof drums the beat
Of the drops that pattered on the tent
On the night you first held me,
I long for the days when your lips were just an inch away-
And now there are miles between us
You are in the chorus of every love song I hear on the radio,
You are in the corner of every smile I smile;
You are in my mind everyday
Being without you is physical pain.
You have a hold over me so strong that not even death could break.
And while I lie awake
You lie sound asleep
In your shared bed
With your new girl,
And me - a long forgotten fragment of your past.
