Alone

The gaping wound
that's causing me to ache
that causes unspoken pain
lies within my broken heat
growing vaster each passing day.

After all this time apart
the healing should begin
soon, I'm sure, my heart will mend,
and the memory will fade away.

Alone without you here to hold
nobody to keep me warm
no arms to keep me safe.

This is what your heart decided
though difficult to breathe without you.

Would you ever return to me?

Please tell me what you think
