The silence now rang out louder as I sat with myself in the dark,
Someone told me yesterday that my heart was harder than bark,
Tomorrow is a journey on which I'll always embark—
Yet it seemed like I couldn't hit my mark; like I'd lost every ounce of spark.
It'd been a so long since I said my last bye
And at an odd hour, she sent a lonely 'hi'
This was like summer in the middle of winter
And it cracked through my winter, splinter by splinter.
You know the sudden synergy when a half meets another,
The way the weather changes when a lover meets the other?
There's something inside of me that she seemed to enchant,
We tried to live apart but it was a luxury time wouldn't grant.
We'll never fade away like some old-time rant
We'll try to live without but she knows she can't and I can't.
