Still There
By Heather Baumann
Back to Menu
The ravenous whisper in my ear
The yearning voice I long to hear
The engaging aroma of a salty tear
Are you still there?

I rest conscious in a black abyss
I long for that adrenaline kiss
I call out to the only soul to miss
Are you still there?

You now live only in my dreams
This wish I had of you is in smithereens
Waiting, longing for that special touch
I know now you are all too much
But my soul still searches for that lingering stroke
And leaves me wondering, are you still there?
