The Girl is Lost

The girl is lost,
Remembering your smile,
Awakens her heart,
And opens her bliss.
Closing her eyes,
Memories fade more,
Clawing the stomach.
It hurts to laugh,
Yet that shortens every mile,
Dirt is more worthy than her,
While you are away.
Choking on desperation,
Each day is poison,
She dies a little more,
Thick ropes tying her down.
Falling to her knees,
Scratching where you would lay,
Dragging herself through agony.
A brave face is given,
Forgetting that black smudges stain,
Answers will come eventually,
But the girl does not understand.
The girl knows this won’t last forever,
Counting down until next time,
Your arms will be there,
Strong, safe arms.
The times she sees you,
Are always too short,
But until you’ll always be together,
The girl is lost.
