3/10

Your grip won't leave
My thoughts can't turn to anything
Innocent
With or without (you) I forget
Where I end, where you begin
Let the distance that keeps us apart
Separate our codependent hearts
I travel alone
I sleep alone
I drink alone
Hoping to learn myself

Your grip won't release
My thoughts aren't lonely
With or without (you) it's the same
As real as ever
As absent as always

A clear vision of your face
Threatens casually, lest I forget
There won't soon be another.
