A hollow heart

An empty dream

A broken kiss

Tearing at me

I’ve strayed too far

Too close to the edge

Pull me back

From the crashing surf

And the pounding

In my ears

The movement

Of your words

Around me

Telling me to jump…

A stream of crimson

A rain of tears

Oh please God

The beat of a heart

Your heart

Slowly fading

And the warmth

Of your last embrace

Slowly dying…

Like me
