Numb Hope

No longer feel the pain of it Heart is numb from feeling it Candle of hope no longer lit Can't go back to the daily grit

Left in the darkness all alone Emptiness now that you're gone Try to put it in a song But all the words, they come out wrong

Sketch your face in red and brown With all your hair come tumbling down Kick your feet up off the ground Make my stomach flop around

Your beauty scares away the dark It fills my mind and casts a spark To light my candle once again Maybe someday, more than "just friends"
