Shadows Of Want
How do I get over this longing for you?
In the quiet moments alone,
I feel the heaviness of your absence,
Whispering through the shadows.
I try to distract myself,
But my thoughts always come back to you,
An ache that won't go away.
How do I move on from craving you?
In the busy city streets,
I seek comfort in unfamiliar faces,
But they blur into images of you.
Your laughter echoes in my head,
A song I can't shake off,
Drawing me deeper into wanting.
How do I stop wanting you?
I say your name into the night,
Hoping it will fade away with the wind,
But it always returns softly.
I look at the stars,
But they just remind me of your eyes,
Leaving me with but only one question...
How do I stop craving you?
