Everytime, I close my eyes

Its been three days,
since i last had you,
in my life.
since the last time I felt you holding me,
loving me,
being with me.
And I just can't seem to,
forget about you.
Every Time I close my eyes,
you come right back to the for-fount of mind,
every time I close my eyes,
I see us in my head.
Every Time I close my eyes,
I resit the urge to cry.
Every Time I close my eyes,
I just wish you weren't side,
because the truth of it all,
the truth of all,
hurts more than the lies.
because truth is I want you back,
and I know you don't want me.
I guess I,
Just want to put the past in the past.
So I hope that,
this time,
when I close my eyes,
I don't see you.
