In Bits & Pieces

I miss the beating of your heart.

Carrying your hurt,
Anything & everything,
Now I'm cold & alone.
Ticking away, wishing you'd call me your home.

Living in this world without your hand,
Out looking onto a dangerous land,
Vines & sand,
Empty my insides.

And now I'm just a waste of time.
Not another to be taken by the tide.
Drowning where it all resides.

Listening to what you say,
Is the only way,
Vices & today,
Eating life away.

Withering my bones,
I can't find home,
Take my hand &
Hold me close.
Out live me,
Underneath a dying rose,
Tables turned & wrapped you up.

Yearning for your voice & touch.
Onto a path, dependent of all to much.
Under the skin, no new love, it's always you through thick & thin.
