And the thoughts go crazy
the feelings blue
never again will there be
A glimpse of you. 

Had I tried harder
were you there any longer
if only i’d understood better
would you still have been there? 

the sun hides behind the cloud
and the wind heaves
flowers bloom no more
and the trees have shed their leaves
nature teases me
camouflaging the bare soul
asking, trying to be set free 

i wish upon a shooting star
asking you back
to rid me of the scar
the hole in my heart’s grown big and black
and i’m dying
heal me
only you can save me 

the door is ajar
if u must know
and i’m waiting– not so far
with a deserted hope
of some sign you’ll show.
