I wonder what
It’s like for you
Living without me.
I wonder if your heart
Sinks to the tips of your toes
At the whisper of my name.
Does your mouth get dry?
Do your tears swell up
In the centre of your chest
Before they ever
Have the chance
Of leaving your eyes?
I wonder of your first thought
When you hear songs
We used to sing,
On blacked out
Backroads and in old
Abandoned buildings.
Do they make you
Swallow the hard truth
Of what we have become?
At the memory
Of my own,
Or if my words
Still echo in the space
Between your aching ribs.
I wonder if
You will ever know that
You were always enough,
Or if you knew that
When you spoke to me of love,
I wondered if I was enough too.
