Maybe love is imagining your smile
Waking up smiling without knowing why
Maybe I’ve loved you for so long
Only now I see that you are gone

That’s what they say, we only see beauty when it’s lost
But if I’ve lost you, tell me why
This chill in my chest won’t subside

Two parts of a whole so far apart
But still, somehow so complete
Only fragments remain, a thread of hope
Holding me, keeping me on my feet

Every breath feels so insufficient
To fill the void I feel inside
It’s only been minutes since the goodbye
But time feels endless, frozen in my mind

That’s what they say, we only see beauty when it’s lost
But if I’ve lost you, tell me why
This chill in my chest won’t subside

Two parts of a whole so far apart
But still, somehow so complete
Only fragments remain, a thread of hope
Holding me, keeping me on my feet

And in the tear that falls
Without my permission, your goodbye stayed
No chance to scream how much I love you
You took everything, but left what consumes me

Two parts of a whole so far apart
But still, somehow so complete
Only fragments remain, a thread of hope
Holding me, keeping me on my feet

And so you left, without leaving an address
For me to wrap my feelings in a poem to confess
Everything I feel, everything that’s left
Haunts me, but promises me rest
