the clock

five days.
nineteen hours.
twenty-four minutes.
it has been that long.
since your last word to me.
since you last said you loved me.
since everything.

i cannot live like this.
i need your words,
i need our memories,
i need your smile,
i need you looking at me,
i need your love,
i need you.

i am afraid,
afraid of the future.
i am frustrated,
frustrated about the reason.
i am confused,
confused about what to do.
i am desperate,
desperate for a sign from you.
i am in love,
in love with you.
