your love

i'm searching for the answer.
i can't find it.
so i look deeper into the pile of books.
but no, nothing tells me of what to do.

soul searching, i am.

in confusion i fall
and nowhere to be found am i.

and i am aware that you are fading from the picture.
and it's as if the lesser visible you become,
the more my smile faded as well.

but even though you're almost gone,
i'll stand my ground.
i'll keep you where you are.
inside... inside that heart of swirls.

and as the notes flow in,
the despair falls deeper.
and the piano digs deep into me
calling, in silence, your name.

each guitar string is wrapped with emotion.
and you held it with your hands...
and left a mark that would keep it wounded.
you left it craving for your touch,
craving for your love.
