So Close

When you left me I became numb and never thought I would feel again.
Lonliness became my virtue, Apathy my best friend
For the last three years I spent my life in your shadow
Waiting for you to return,
But the option was never on the table
So I have suffered alone


Now your voice is just a whisper, your sarcasm a dream
Your cold eyes just a memory,
And memories...they fade.
Yet our love and connection will always be in the back of my mind
And laced in the tattoo on my back that I got to always remind me


You are my Twin Soul and that will never change
But I know now that in this lifetime we are not meant to be
So I have finally begin to pick up the pieces
And try to find love again
Wishing you happiness, you'll always be my best friend
I know I will never get over you
You'll always be a part of me
Yet I'm so close...
And this is as close as I will ever be.

    I like this alot. I have and have these same emotions going on for myself right now as well. the time for me is not so long, but it all rings so true for me,
    well done and good luck in the contest for this. if my muse raises her head from the shadows long enough to see, maybe I'll enter as well.
    cheers
