the night

hollow, empty, are your eyes
I barely feel you by my side
solid mass touches right there
though I can't tell if you still care
my heart is shattered in my ribs
pale and frozen are my lips
as words echo, still, silently
begging you to please show me:
kiss me, kiss me, like you did
when we first met, so passionate
that tender touch I miss so much
it made me shiver, made me flushed
what I want right now is you inside
to make me deaf and make me blind
overflow me with your love
remind me that I am enough
before you lose me to the night
which will wrap me up, holding me tight
I won't be warm but I will know
at least I love myself, alone.
