Try

Try to pry this
From my cold and determined
Skin
Try to steal this
From my memories
Of sunlight
Of his smile
That still hits me
Like thunder
Still pours me like rain
What is easy for some
Is harder for others
When shadows of doubt
Still play in their vision
How can the heart be wrong?
When it beats out his name
When it bleeds for his smile
When it whispers the secrets
Behind his eyes
The mind shouts the reasons-
But is deafened by the sound
Of a heart in need
