Hold Me Close

In the stillness of the room your absence weighs so heavy

Every corner echoes with memories steady and unwavering

Your touch still lingers on my skin but your presence starts to flee

I'm drowning in this emptiness screaming "Don't leave me"

Don't leave me stranded in this lonely place

Where memories dance in shadows tracing your face

I'm lost without you can't you see?

So hold me close darling and don't leave me

The stars above us used to shine reflecting in your eyes

But now they seem to mock me as they watch our love's demise
