It's hard to explain how this heart feels. Like laughter lost in echo and your warm touch now long gone cold. Anxious, breathless; something lost I need so desperately found. Empty perhaps. Abandoned like houses, broken like silence. These hands can't reach as far as where you lay. Somehow I feel like I burn at both ends; the flames now reaching their meeting place. But it's always better to burn out than to fade away.
