Your absence can turn blue skies into thunderstorms
You ruin me
I walk around doing things I enjoy
I speak to people I love
I succeed, I progress, I press on but I struggle against the weight
You took my heart clean out of my chest
But did you run away with it? No, not a thief with so much honor
You filled it up with memories
Made it heavy every time you walked out the door
Caused it to swell with pride, excitement, joy
And, with a few words, you shackled it to my ankle
And here I stand
Waiting for you to return
And chase away the clouds
