i lie alone... now
fighting the chill
pushing against the emptiness
that has become night
filled in with feathers
these sheets twisting around
where your arms belong
and i listen to your sighs
remembering anxious breaths
caressing skin
afraid the scent will fade
and leave me holding on
trying to grasp memories
as if i could wrap myself around
empty spaces
hands holding on to each other
cannot span the distance
i'm tracing lines... counting miles
every second adds up... alone
incomplete
i'm breathing for tomorrows
choking on the reality of today
losing pace, out of rhythm
i'm still tripping on stones
of yesterdays mountains
show me the path you've found
where love leads us along
cuore a cuore a cuore

It does take a caring and special person to reach out to us and pull us back.
