back to me

will you come back?

 

Bottom step, there's nothing left

inside my dwelling thanks to your vacancy.

When was I not good enough?

I shuffle through Kodak moments in my head,

some are clear and some are becoming quite dead.

 

It's lonely sitting here, with no place to rest my head.

I would have put it on your shoulder, but you've changed

those plans. [and you didn't even ask me]

 

Will you come back?

The scar tissue of your goodbye's still lingers deep inside

and I don't approve of its residency.

So please reconsider throwing me against broken heart's wall

and come running back to me.

 

The wind and the leaves

can even detect that somethings not right.

[remember that night, December 1995?]

 

Give me a reason to go back inside.

    This really breaks my heart. It's so relatable to me, because I've been there myself and I know how painful it can be. I love your choice of words though, very strong and expressive. Like the odd rhymes in here as well
