I'm Lonely When I'm With You

I stand here and feel empty,

You are at my side yet I feel as if the shadows are the only living thing in the room.

I feel your breath on my skin but it would be more believable if it was the wind,

And when you speak the words sound like forgotten whispers.

I stand here and wait for the void to fill but it seems that you and I are just destined to be lonely,

To search forever for an impossible satisfaction.

It hurts to know that you will never be enough,

I will never be enough.

My heart aches to be held by gentle hands,

Not in the palms of a ghost.

I long for something,

I don't know what,

but I know it's not you.
