Things I Can Not Speak

As Words Just Aren't Enough

Alone, so deeply longing, so deeply needing

Alone, so fragile with my desires

Abandoned, again, how could it be you?

Alone, with your face, little child memories

Alone, with your last words, "I need time to let it sink in"

Abandoned with those words, I am not okay

Alone.

Alone, I am with the ghost of who I thought you were

Alone, I wander carefully around love, I am leaking

Leaking from the waiting for it all to sink in

Alone, knowing it never will

Alone.
