Footprints left behind
Listening for the door to open
Waiting for the phone to ring
Things have never been the same
Luck seems to have gone down the drain
Stores are out of everything I need now
Flowers are dying when I touch them
Walking outside of my body
A cloud hanging over my head
Drowning in a puddle of tears
Leave the door unlock please
So I can revisit your ghost
Your room is untouched
Five years later
The pain consumes my life
My days taken
Your life cut short
Pictures to be colored
Books to be read
Pillows to throw
Not now
Hearts ruined
Blood dripping
Head spinning
Lost in tomorrow
I wake in hell
Author notes
The love for the one you think is the one taken from by death never to be the same when you lose the love of your life
