Desperation

Why does it have to be like this?

I need just a few more words, one more kiss.

I wish I could be far away from now.

But I don't know when and I don't know how. 

I used to have that love that makes your eyes shine.

I was his and he was mine. 

But our time passed and he had to leave.

He flies with angels, and I struggle to breathe.

And as I silently break every night.

I recall our love. I recall our fights.

I wait in the darkness for my time to arrive.

I wonder if anybody even hears my cries.

The loneliness seeps in, like ink onto skin.

I'll never be whole unless I'm with him.

Why does it have to be like this?

I need just a few more words, one more kiss.
