Vacation

A mere ten days
While I'm away
is enough to drive me insane
Without your voice to tell me it's okay

Not a single word, not a single glance
I don't know who's breaking apart
Clearly it's me, but I can see
You feel the same

So many tears shed
That I can't wipe away
So many words
I can't say

This was supposed to be a holiday
Yet it seems like prison
I try to reach out for you
But I'm helpless before the many miles

I don't know what you're thinking
I don't know if you're crying
You don't know if I'm breaking
You don't know if I'm faking a smile

I can't wait till I can hear your voice again
I can't wait till your horrible jokes again
I can't wait to tell you I'm not leaving again
I can't wait to pull you in my arms again

I know I can't do that right now
But know I'm counting the days till I can
And I know I've written too many words by now
But know that they're only a fraction of what I want to say
