While you lie sleeping
Correcting misspelling.
Gotta love spell check. Ugh
I have so much to tell you since you've been gone
You feel every crevice in my mind
You've missed 6000 nights
Innumerous rain drops
6000 days of dawn
Freeing myself from solitary confinement
I hop, I climb, I run
The grasp of loneliness loosen
I've swum further than I've ever swum
I blink the tears away
Again and again
You were my rock I held on to
My everything
Nevertheless you lie sleeping
