We dim these lights for your return

Only you never showed

I still see this door open expecting your arrival

I need to hear those words

Laying motionless on the floor

You felt the cold of this early morning

Now you cannot feel the cold of it's night

All your pain has gone

I remember laying on my back staring at the ceiling

Wondering what comes next

Can it get any worse than this

My pain has been numbed with fear

I can never seem to speak of this tragedy

So my pen bleeds all of my emotion onto this paper

So this is how it feels to be stripped of hope

As I have never felt so fucking empty

Watch the color drain from my skin

Take every last piece of it in and

Think before you realize what you may lose
