The darkness always brings out the most friendless emotions tucked inside this mind of mine
And you always seem to bring out the pleasurable ones that are rarely seen these days
Less of you has been seeping through to my blood stream lately and it's seemingly getting worse with time
I'm afraid I must assume the worst in this scenario; I believe that I simply cannot live without you
Walking, continually walking to where I believe you may be; nearly there bet it's becoming quite difficult with every additional step
The weight bearing down on this soul is becoming crushing, and yet I still continue to aimlessly wander
I have never been sure of any blessing acknowledged to be in my favor until you first touched me and I felt the depth
Never have I experienced an attachment that ran so deep, I feel you in every beat of my heart
Time has no meaning to me anymore; it is simply the space that haunts me with each day passing by
Perhaps this may be the cause of these endless and sleepless nights that occur without your arms there to guide my heart into rest
But for what is the cause of the emptiness beneath my rib cage; the seeming motive to the moisture that dwells beneath my eyes
Grayscale seems to be conquering my life, for I am only able to see the color in each memory of our
Holding faith never has seemed so challenging; letting go has never been a choice in my dwindling selection
Discouraging of the slightest but I stand true, readily awaiting to immerse into you once again
Memories are stronger than my wil to forget for just a moment, promised to you; rejection of any thoughts of minor inflection
You seep through every crack and crevice in my brain, even with eyes shut all I see is you and I in complete vividness
What have you soaked into your skin? It is a necessity of mine from this first touch to surely my dying day
I grow dreary with each moment that our skin is not intertwined; my ambition to achieve your touch is far more than my aim for anything more or anything less I could require
Remorse drowns this empty heart, cursing my name for every moment of us I enabled to fall astray
Fear fills this once remarkable soul, questioning if I could be everything that brilliance could ever desire
You are what sets me apart from the world; with you, I am perched higher than the emblematic girls that crowd my view
And without, plummets me to a place that I wish not to be; surrounded by nothing but these deafening insecurities
Every mile walked is never in vein, each step will hold great worth when our souls collide, lips intertwine, and this grand love, stands anew
These are the images that beckon into my once occupied spirit; you are my drive to continue to see love in this world, and your space reminds of every one of my fears in it
