The Tear Garden

Love Notes & Carnations

The Tear Garden


I sit and watch your silhouette, 
I wonder what youre doing, 
who youre with, 
if youre thinking of me now. 
Was I just a passing phase
did we ever really share? 
Did we just soliloquise
was I ever really there. 
If I leave this sheltered space
will anything be there? 
Disinfected,
disconnected,
waiting in my cage for you to call... 
Am I living in a cage with all the comforts I created. 
When I want you here, 
all you do is close the blinds and leave me crying to a shadow 
locked behind a glass that shuts me out, 
that cuts me down... 
Memories are fading. 
Surely something slowly burns. 
Dont you yearn for just a replay for a day?
