“Something slips away.”
So I wake up to the sound of silence,
With no one by my side.
I look around to the darkness,
with no comfort to be found.
I sit in the cold,
Waiting to be saved,
but as I wait,
Something slips away.
I wonder where you are,
but you’re nowhere in sight.
I listen to the silence,
Hoping to hear your voice,
but there’s nothing.
I pull the covers closer,
Wishing for all this to end,
but nothing’s happening.
It’s as if time stopped,
Nothing is moving.
I get out of bed,
Search around to find you,
but there’s no one there.
I ask myself,
“Where are you?”
as I find nothing.
I call out,
“Are you here?”
but there’s no answer.
I turn around,
and a cold chill creeps up against my back.
I wake up to find myself in a cold sweat,
to find out that it was only a dream.
Then I look around,
and you aren’t here.
Was it a dream?
Or was it me searching within?
I take a deep breath,
and find out that you truly aren’t here.
I lost my connection with you,
and so did you.
I feel a tear fall down my face,
but I stop myself from crying,
because that won’t do any good.
I look to the side and see a picture.
A picture of us.
I pick it up and remember that time.
I turn it over,
to find the date it was taken.
I read that it had been two years.
Two years since everything fell apart.
Now I realized,
I realized my love for you slipped away,
and yours,
Yours began slippin away,
As every day gone by with out us talking.
We have our ways of communication,
but we don’t use it.
Our love slipped away.
Our friendship slipped away.
Any relationship slipped away.
I wish I could turn back time,
and say sorry for what I’ve done.
That isn’t possible,
because life is life.
It’s not a tape or a video,
which could be rewinded and edited.
Life’s a book,
You go on to see what happens.
Nothing is always good.
Now I wonder where you are,
because it’s as if you have disappeared,
disappeared off the face of the Earth.
