When you're not here
My heart's invisible tears
Trickle down the sides
Of its soft beating cheeks

Time spent with you gone
Is like time stretched too long
And my soul cries your name
Longing for its missing companion

When I'm alone
Your name strikes a tone
So melodic, so soft
And thoughts of you flood my mind

I'll feel out of place at best
Much like seeing a bird's nest
But missing a mother
To give warmth to its eggs

When you're missing, the pain
Feels like a kiss in the rain
Without rain
Without a kiss
Because without you
I'm cast
from eternal bliss
The Eden of my heart
In you lies my purpose to live
