Stop.

Just for the moment let me see

you as you were meant to be.

In that space before life joined us

Stop. let me see.

My pain has started in this time.

We have stopped you are not mine.

Instead you are but one day colder.

Leaving me a vacant shoulder.

And there, in darkness, where I sit

he has come to challenge it.

To force me to the light of day

and ensure that I keep on this way.

Stop.

Now you will see.

What your absence has done to me.

That I am left confused. Conflicted.

All because my heart's restricted.
