At night it is so simple. My untouched body feels hollow And restless without you tangled up-in me. You belong in the nape of my neck; In the small of my back… You belong with me. We just fit. But it’s missing you that’s complicated… Now that you’ve left me. (now that we’ve lost each other) It’s getting over the loss of your presence, and knowing... I can’t have you regardless Of where you and I belong in this world. It’s knowing how much We both love each other… And accepting that love isn’t enough. (obviously) It’s awakening without you… Living without you… Breathing without you… (oh god how I miss you here right now) …the nape of my neck …the small of my back and everything in between these holes you fill i am so empty "Who you are speaks so loudly...I can hardly hear what you are saying" |

strong base, strong words ... and a strong heart emptiness consumes faster than anything, accepting curbs it, but only time nourishes it. an excellent write and heart |

Love full and all encompasing, physical mental almost smothering Song - can't remember the singer And words are all I have to take your love away This is almost elemental love on a physical and mental level Nice Dave |

I can't believe that the love you are expressing isn't enough. It feels like enough and I'm on the other end of a computer screen. |

It’s awakening without you… Living without you… Breathing without you… It's the agony of the loss and you word it so well from the heart and soul. |
