for the first time in a long time

i am alone

for a moment there

fleeting, i felt your touch

now i can't sleep

because you are gone

i can't feel your arms around me

i can't smell you at all

i try to find your scent in dirty clothes or small scraps you once gave me

i smell nothing

i call you and you don't answer

i can't even leave a message

you are gone

from me 

from us

i am also somewhere else

alone
