ghost limbs

Wish I could fall asleep quick like you do
Bury my bones in my bed
I'd bet it twice that you dream of me too
Figurines dance in your head
A character with a mouth just like yours
Came to me in your stead
And he spoke so sweetly I almost thought you were with me
Now I lay that person to rest
I walk in perfect circles
But you are nowhere
Reaching for arms and legs
My fingers in the cold air
You were my one and only
My twin but not kin
Reaching for arms and legs
But all you left were ghost limbs
I sit in silence and sip bitterness
Even the gutless spin
All of the gold things will stay alive infinitely
This was too silver to live
We stood inside with our cheeks pressed to glass
Watched as the sky collapsed
Wasn't it you who told me callow hearts were meant for folding
As I watched you break in half
I walk in perfect circles
But you are nowhere
Reaching for arms and legs
My fingers in the cold air
You were my one and only
My twin but not kin
Reaching for arms and legs
But all you left were ghost limbs
I walk in perfect circles
But you are nowhere
Reaching for arms and legs
My fingers in the cold air
You were my one and only
My twin but not kin
Reaching for arms and legs
But all you left were ghost limbs
