“Shaded truths and broken hearts”
completed on 9/13/06
sitting alone in my cozy haven of a room
photos of you scattered ’round the floor
the images feel so bright and recent
vivid recollections of when I had you
i feel your warmth now
lost in the memories of us
i reach out to grab you
to caress your smooth hair
to taste those soft lips
to lose myself in those bright eyes
and to feel your warm embrace
but the images only fade as my daydream abruptly ends
and i am now cold and lonely on the floor
shaded truths and broken hearts
built this layer around you
and now I’m left here praying
time would change you
