I toss and turn with the monsters in my head,
Your side of the bed lays empty and cold as stone.
The soft words you spoke to me now echo in my mind,
Clocks on the wall slowly ticking seem to even it out.

Your presence is felt around me,
And I can hear your whispering words in my ear.
But the space between us is too hard to bear,
I reach my arms across from where I lay but your not there any more.

All the pictures that once hung on the wall are tattered and torn,
Cobwebs fill the chair in which we used to sit.
The fog slowly rolls in as night turns to day,
Again I wake up all alone with out you.


A cup of coffee here maybe one or two,
Any amount of caffeine still cant kill losing you.
Walking through town I hear people ask me how you have been,
But I just shrug and say your ok and walk towards the bitter wind.

Walking down the dark road as my heart lays heavy in my chest,
I realize I have to get over you, I try to do my best.
So I go out with a few people here and there,
Hang out at the movies or mall.


But every place we go has marks from where I've been with you,
Like the movies our row and chairs are there and the picture place in the
mall.
The table which we sat at and laughed for many hours,
I'd hold you in my pale arms and look into your eyes.
