Waking in our bed,
I lifted your ringing phone to find
words that tore apart my mind.
I was left with a heavy head
and eyes I wished were blind.
My heart aches for a new day,
one where games are no longer played.
When pieces move in truth not lies,
shadowed words, not seen with these eyes.
With tears and heavy legs
the floor became my comfort.
Cold wood was the shoulder upon which I laid,
though it felt as though it burned
and low enough I could not fall.
My heart aches for a new day,
one where games are no longer played.
When pieces move in truth not lies,
shadowed words, not seen with these eyes.
~
The plane leaves soon for you, late for me.
I ready the home,
dress in hopeless tears.
Catch a taxi,
float through the air and fears.
~
You’ve kept me in the dark
and pushed me from your heart.
Our connection seems now gone.
Though I am skimming clouds,
I feel farther from the heavens and never more apart.
My heart aches for a new day,
one where games are no longer played.
When pieces move in truth not lies,
shadowed words, not seen with these eyes.
