Absence

I can't feel you,

I can't feel you here right now,

but this place reeks

of you.

You're gone,

but are you?

I haven't broken for a while.

I think I'm due.

It’s true what they say

of absence.

 

No time,

no time like the present.

I was born for here and now.

I can't do this

without you,

but that won’t stop me trying.

Even if you're gone for good,

I'll play this little game

and hope we might be saved,

even in your absence.
