Miss Your Smile, by bedazzled Subscribe to rss feed for bedazzled

I'd forgotten the blackness of melancholy,
And the way it winds tendrils around your smile,
I'd forgotten what it was like to be,
Wedged between rejection and denial,
I'd forgotten how I used to be,
My whole body dragged down with despair,
I'd forgotten how I used to see,
Your face, your eyes, everywhere,

I miss you most of all,
When you're smiling,
Smiling at me,
You remind me,
How I fall,
Fall so easily,
Memories responding,
Responding to your call,
I miss you in my dreans,
But when you're smiling,
I miss you most of all,

Now I'm stalked by the blackness of melancholy,
Watching as you slowly dim the light behind my smile,
With every breath I know what it's like to be,
Wedged between rejection and denial,
I've slipped into the picture of me,
The one where I'm outlined with despair,
And when my eyes are open all I can see,
Is your face, your smile, everywhere,

I miss you most of all,
When you're smiling,
Smiling at me,
You remind me,
How I fall,
Fall so easily,
Memories responding,
Responding to your call,
I miss you in my dreans,
But when you're smiling,
I miss you most of all.
