Detached

I’ve been here for three long nights,

Wish I could freeze time in its tracks,

Left on read, your silence loud,

You seem detached, lost in the crowd.

Truth is hard, it’s a pain to see,

You’ve moved on, away from me.

I’m wondering how I could be your all,

Then nothing, left to watch us fall.

So here I am, for one more night,

Clinging to dreams in the fading light.

Detached, but holding on so tight,

To the echoes of a love so bright.

Once you held my every thought,

Now your absence leaves me caught.

Detached, you fade into the mist,

A love once held, now barely missed.

So here I lie, for one more night,

Embracing shadows, chasing light.

Detached, but never letting go,

Of the love we used to know.
