Siting on the edge of the river
with my feet hanging over the ledge...
His and hers laundry together in the dryer,
two plates and bowls in the sink...
Looking at myself in the mirror
sometimes it's hard to rememeber thats me...
Sometimes in the dark
when the humid heat is still pressing down...
This pain inside of me,
I swear it's tearing me apart...
As I wake up from my restless sleep
and the loneliness shrouds me again...
Sitting here alone in the dark
listening to the howling winds...
Laying here alone in the dark
just staring at the wall...
Reminding myself to breathe,
I hold back the tears and fight them...
Every time I close my eyes
I still see you looking at me...
As I watch you leave after bringing me home
I can't help but smile...
Once again sitting alone
trying to keep my thoughts at bay...
