its cold
inside the empty spot
of my heart
where you once
took up space.
ridden with cobwebs
my heart
and soul alike;
you've been gone
for too long.
i've almost forgotten you;
your voice
your touch
your smile
your love.
but i'm reminded
in every place
that you don't occupy;
my heart
and soul alike,
but my mind
continues to betray me,
keeping the image
of you
clear.
it's cold
inside my heart
but
at the same time,
the absence
of you
it burns.
