Lights Out
Really, I miss you.
They say that when you
Go on your long holiday,
Move on to elsewhere,
Sleep forever (and I hope
you are sleeping sweetly),
You continue to look on.
Well never has it been so painful
For a whole room of eyes
To look upon me.
So quiet, watching,
Why can’t I see, hear, feel?
I would cut off my own hands
If that meant they could
Move on and holds yours.
Sadly, they must stay,
Stay to craft a fate that will,
One day,
See me with you all again.
