I've Lost So Much

I've lost so much...
Falling in the destruction of you
Shattered pieces fall at my feet
In the wake of our friendship
Broken words
Broken hearts
Songs that remind me of you
Float along in the stagnant air
I try to breathe you out and they choke me
Stifling me
Pressing up against the back of my throat
The cry that will never leave
The tears that will never fall
The heart that will never heal
I've lost so much...
I want it back
You, erased from my memory
from my thoughts, from my heart
Leave...
Drift away like the mist on the ocean
dissipating with the sun
