Like You Never Left

Every night is the same

Right before I fall asleep

I stare at the ceiling thinking about you

Wondering if you'll be in my dreams again

It should be a habit by now

But the same emotions still overwhelm me

Like suppressed feelings that only come awake at night

I should have known you were a scar that would never go away

In the morning I wake up in a pool of perspiration

My heartbeat so vigorously loud, hurts like hell

Its like am an adrenaline junkie who had to do one more life threatening stunt

But instead of laughing at the end of it,

am filled with fear, caution, nostalgia and a little darkness

Every night its the same

But at times I wake up and I don't remember

I don't want to remember because the recollections fiercely cling on to me

So I live on,

Like it never happened

Like you never left
