Naomi
Love and pain are tattooed on my wrist
reminding me of your short time with us
Your name should be written across my heart
I wanted a visible inked scar to match the ones no one can see
this emptiness and giant hole you've left in me.
I don't know what makes me ache more;
the fact you never got to experience
life and all it's ugliness, or the beauty
and warmth you would have brought to it.
Whenever I see you I never want to say goodbye.
I wanna drape myself across the earth where you lie
I wanna kick and scream and cry; I look up and curse the sky.
It's the only time I feel close to anyone or anything in this world.
My eyes have cried their last cry
but somehow always end up streaming.
Words seem lost on me
and forgotten at this point.
I reminisce about being kids
and having fun together.
You say nothing at all.
I feel you in the mountain view instead
I would give anything to hold you again.
I can't apologize enough to the wind
hoping it will carry my words to you
and comfort me
at the same time
My heart is beyond broken
I need you to fix it
to mend the breaks and tears
of my tattered existence..
Love and pain are burnt on my wrist.
