Greeting you in the morning
That kiss that stayed on my lips all day
The smell of body lingering in my thoughts
My day couldn’t pass quick enough
Only to lay next to you again
Long nights now alone
In the bed we shared
I wait like a corpse
Alone and broken
Knowing you’ll never return
A text arrives
7:30 AM
I smile knowing it’s the time you call
but it isn’t you
It will never be you again
I sit waiting on a bed we shared
Watching the clock
Listening to the silence that was once your quick beating heart
Wishing things could have been different
But you burnt that bridge
The bridge that led to my heart
and my life is a little more empty now…
