I have run out of words and I have run out of tears
trying to erase his touch burnt out on my skin

numb
hollow
aching

and everyone knows I'm dying for he took my heart
for he took my mind my love my soul my whole

self
existence
meaning

I am defrosting the fridge
one cigarette after another
I am cleaning out every nook of our life

we moved mountains to be here
just to build one between us
in our love bed

I am whole inside and out
there is no single piece missing
I have a brain a heart
two hands two feet
two lungs and ten fingers

I am complete and so is my universe

there is a house and a garden
with roses and a wooden swing

you left but you only took away yourself

your brain your heart
your hands your feet
your lungs and your ten fingers

you did not take away the house and the garden
with roses and a wooden swing

there is no single piece missing
