out of the depths

did i dig this hole? one day, i was looking forward to spending time with you. as i walked through the hours in a daze, i had already unknowingly lost you.

how much of you did i really know? i wanted to be the one there for you, to hold you, to keep you safe.

you took so much of me and i still had some left to squander. but you were yanked out of my world until i woke up with the dreadful certainty that you had shut the door.

i knew... even before we fell, that if i got sucked in, i would lose in the end. because now that you're gone, i am the one left searching for the outlines of your hazy face with eyes that never look my way.

i'm lost in the memory of you. and now i move in a fog all the rest of my days.
