You do not know
I cannot tell you
each night lengthening
each night stark
filled with your face
on a pillow
where I do not want you to be.
You cannot know
I cannot tell you
heart hurting, no longer able
to hide behind picture frames
lining a wall
behind what I must do
what I do not want to do.
I cannot tell you
the days I want back
days we had now belong to
someone else
who doesn't know you
doesn't love you like I do.
You cannot know that hurt
it hides behind what I must do
It hides behind pictures on the wall
I hang to try to remind you
remind you that I love you.
All the things you cannot know
All the things we shared you can
no longer face, facing away
behind those pictures
behind those smiles
Miles from home.
