Heart

When was the last time you looked at me with adoration?

I’ve only existed by the blessing of your apparition.

I am drowning, falling from the surface.

To lose what is closest to me is the end of my beginning.

Adapting forms consume the thought of this love ending.

I am drowning, falling further from the surface.

You were the constant truth that gave my life purpose.

Conflict resides inside my desperate lungs.

Maintain the oxygen or just fill up.

I feel so close to you again.

Let a scream out and the water in.

This was meant for us to share, an elegy sung for you to hear.

Unending love from a heart that’s been sinking since you left.

I am the son remembering his father’s death.

To lose what is closest to me is the end of my beginning.

Adapting forms consume the thought of this love ending.

Unending love.
