Off Beat

Sitting at home
sipping coffee
while looking for a song
that speaks to me...

When did everything
turn to nothing?

Time is off beat
making the pain increase!

The music doesn't matter.
I can't hear the lyrics
I can't feel the notes
The noise
of my heart breaking
drowns everything
except for me...

You took over my mind!

I'm looking for a distraction
but when you left,
you left nothing
other than destruction!

Sitting at home
sipping coffee
while looking for a song
that speaks to me
I started writing
to you...
Words you'll never hear
Poems you'll never read
Pain you'll never feel
Tears you'll never see

Tears that drown EVERYTHING
and spared me...
