Not There

I can't see it anymore,
In your words, your heart.
But I know that it was there,
At the very start.

I can't see it anymore,
A bird who forgets to fly,
A butterfly without its wings,
The wind without its sigh

The smile on your lips is faint
Its hardly even there,
Faded and chipped like year-old paint,
Softly, please come back out here

But I can't see it anymore,
You have to know I care,
And although you can't see me through your eyes,
In your heart, just know I'm there.
