Why didn't you come

Is it in the air these feelings of regretful sorrow?

As I sit here in the darkness alone is all that I know.

There are no tears just this feeling of doubt and loss,

created in my heart as lights fade away.

I feel so empty without your touch,

my words make no sense tonight as I fade.

I miss you so much it is killing me,

nothing to take this away but your touch.

Is this the only reason left for me to cry?

As my shades of gray drift into my black.

Only the loneliest touch brushing my face,

kissing the light from my eyes as I die.

You are not here with me and I need you so bad,

only your kiss will be able to keep me alive.

Am I truly nothing without you next to me?

Does your heart feel the pain that I hide?

I wish that you had come to my arms,

and as I burn in the shadows I know I am gone.

If you are still out there remember my love,

as I drown tonight in fire, my life speaks your name.
