A Letter - Hey

My only one 
It's been just a few short days 
But I can't stop the tears 
Or the lip-biting 
Touching myself 
Like you always used to do 
Catching a whiff of your lovely scent 
On an old sweater 

But here again, the sky is falling on me 
And there's less reflected hope in the sun 
It's just so hard, so hard to sleep and wake up 
When your name keeps bouncing 
And echoing at me off the walls 

Oh these damn days, these so long 
So long lonley days 
They keep on sending me 
Awful pictures 
Gotta just sleep in 
Pretend, pretend not to see 
Tomorrow at last 
We'll go to the river 

My only one 
It's time to finish this 
Keep holding my snapshot 
Close to your heart 
I am the water that once touches your rough hand 
And lingers for all time a soft reminder
