Emtpy Ruins

I see the door close behind you
every time I close my eyes.
I feel the echo of your absence in my heart.
In my mind behind my eyes
I am racing up and down corridors
and through doorways
trying to catch the tail of your
shirt as you amble away from me.
As fast as I can run
I cannot catch up to your memory
and when all my empty hands want
is to pull you near me
I come up with armfuls of air.
I'm shattered
little pieces of lost-girl
litter the landscape of my soul.
I may look like I'm coping
but inside I am on my knees
repeating a one word prayer
please oh please oh please oh please.
I am digusted and engulfed by this pain.
I feel cut in a million places
that bleed melancholy
all over the bed where you loved me.
You loved me.
How did I make you stop?
