Absent From You

I am broken and shallow

You won't need to look too deep

I'm a mimic of you

With the same deflating disease

You've modeled it well

I've wanted it too

If it wasn't for how you smiled

As it swallowed you through

I could have stayed to pull you out

And try to keep you intact

But the cause of your fall

Was from you turning your back

You snuffed all the clues

That screamed in your wake

You chose to allude

All the advice for my sake

I feel it now, I can see right through

You did this for me and I'll do this for you

I will give all I have and nail closed the door

When you come looking around

You will find me no more
