So disheartened,
My chest feels vacant,
Every sound radiates in my head,
Unable to sit still,
Until I hear your voice,
My lungs are collapsing,
Barely breathing,
I am anticipating your arrival,
I’ll never see your face,
But my hopeful heart won’t rest,
I will drown in your words tonight,
Spilling off the page and creeping under my skin,
I let you invade,
Better late than never,
Tell me it’s still living inside you,
it’s what you’ve been waiting for,
all this time has just been a façade,
kept in a cage,
Let me out baby, set me right,
I feel so messed up, so out of control,
There’s no pleasure in trailing the past,
If you’re absent from the part you play.
