Broken and Undone

You called me yesterday
To tell me how you are
I still feel emotion
Even though you are so far
Far away from me
You speak to me again
It's not like I can turn from where we've been

Like you can
Like you can

It's not fair that you can put your arms around me

And feel nothing more than the warmth beneath my skin

I will try to run from all that I'm thinking

And you will pull me in once again

I'm trying my best to run away

Start my life with a new escape

Sand and sun to replace what I feel

I'll smoke my life away with dark wine

And you will carry on just fine without me

Without what was real

March says Hi

December Good bye

But the bed still warm where you used to lie

Down with me, swallowing my tears

Me with bright eyes

And you with your pride

You just sat there as I cried

Over and over living in my fears

It's not fair that you can put your arms around me

And feel nothing more than the warmth beneath my skin

I will try to run from all that I'm thinking

And you will pull me in once again

Eight months away and you called me today

Just to remind you're still alive

And I  don't quite know just what I'm wondering

My time to heal was your time to thrive

Broken and undone
