straight through the heart

I am left collecting…

Every piece that you left behind.

Trying to gather

Anything that will bring me closer to you.

I try and find a place in my heart,

That knows you are forever gone.

But forever seems like a long time.

Pretending,

That every tear I cry might fill a jar

That I could sell to god,

For he might pity me…

When he sees my life is not complete

When you just disappear on me.

'I'm sorry'

could never cure these blisters,

there is no ointment…

that will heal these wounds.

They can try and stitch me back together,

But you made me prone to falling apart.

"It gets easier with time…"

but time just carries you further away

when I just want you close to me.

So I am a scavenger

In a vast abyss…

Looking for the slightest thing

That reminds me of you.

You.

I miss you.
