I sit here alone, and the silence is deafening;
This chaotic calmness drives me insane;
I fear that this solitude lingers, unchanging;
It tortures me over and over again.

I dream of you holding my hand as you kiss me,
I long to feel your gentle embrace;
I ponder on you, and wonder if you miss me;
I wish I could look at your beautiful face.

My mind is a blur as my thoughts are asunder,
I question how much insanity I can take;
I wonder if falling for you was a blunder,
If I should have saved myself endless heartache.

In all the confusion I stare at the darkness,
I seldom appreciate the beauty of night,
The cool night breeze comforts my madness
The eerie-grey moon gives my world a new light.

With strength I must face reality when it hits me;
I lay here awaiting the day we must part;
Yet part we will never; you will always be with me;
You’ve commanded a permanent place in my heart.
