    Barren Field of Flowers

    I miss the passion that you bled into my ink
    You spill across my page like stars in the blackest night
    I miss the days when I walked by your side
    When I didn’t know of the price that would be paid in tears
    I miss reaching out to feel your love and ending up on a cloud
    You do that to me you know
    Make me reach places that only angels roam
    I miss the openness that you hold the key to
    Conversing with you is like water
    Flowing effortlessly from hidden chambers within heart and mind
    I miss dancing under the moon with the prayer to become moonlight
    O sweet love take me back to midnight
    I whispered your name like a prayer
    Your soul must have heard   
    For you dropped by that very morning 
    To light up the sky  
    Oh my, I never wanted to wake
    I miss having the strength to miss you
    My petals wither without your touch
    Fading into ash to scatter across the months, days and years since I
    Stumbled into your atmosphere
    Naked I lie in a barren field of flowers
    I am caressed by the sharp blades of grass
    Like the tip of a knife tracing a wound that will not heal
    I miss you as the night misses the moon in her dark phase
    There is no light without your love
    Shall I return to your waltz of madness my phantom lover
    So I can stop living a lie
    Playing the fool as my life turns into a tragic comedy
    I shall never stop missing you
    For as long as there is a beat to my broken heart
