Desire Awoken

I see you leave,
Hope you think about me,
I think of all the times,
All the places I remember,
I think of us together.

I remember all the days,
Remember all the hours,
All the times I felt alive,
And I wonder, will i survive?

You keep walking, I still hope.
Turn around, come back.
Come back, back to me,
Back to me, and our dreams,
Come back. Patch our broken seams

Please come come back, I want you now,
But how? How do I get you?
So distant, so cold, I only want,
Want you, want me, want us both.
Together again. I make this oath.

I look down, look away, I listen.
Hear the steps, then... nothing.
Do my ears deceive me? I can't breathe.
I hear a squeak of shoes turning,
Is this right? will you stop the hurting?

I hear a voice, low. And soft.
I'm... I'm sorry it says, that was all.
Two words, seven letters. That's it.
Two words, that's all it takes.
Just those two. The dam breaks.

The tears come, I let them flow.
It's back to normal, life is okay.
The world is now righted.
So... the word is soft, almost unspoken.
Tomorrow, I say, the desire is again awoken.
