Inhale
It’s gotten late, my dear, and I want to be alone
 I’d prefer if you leave
 The air’s gotten thick without you home
 With you gone, there’s nothing left to breathe
 
 I couldn't inhale with the bed empty
 The sheets dejected on your side
 Wishing for those futile touches
 When our bodies would tiredly collide
 
 It’s gotten to be too much, I understand, 
 We can’t keep this up forever
 But still, my throat closes up at home
 Gasping in scattered memories of when we were together
 
 I understand, though my head's gotten lighter, its seems
 Space colliding, empty pockets, thoughts bursting at the seams
 
 It’s gotten late, my dear, and I want to be alone
 I thought you'd gone from here
 There’s only negative space where you once were
 There’s only negative space where you once were
