“Leach”

It’s not your fault truth be told 
All your ways and wants got old 
And all your needs and all your speech 
Lovingly my little leach 
Sucking the life right out of me 
Why did you take everything I need and want away 
Just to be you
To be new
In the same hurtful way 
I'm out of touch
Think too much
About everything 
Just lost my hold
On us I fold 
Now let's see what life will bring 
It's not your fault you didn't hear 
Or maybe the meaning wasn't clear 
Didn't hear the scream for help inside 
Life had its way till we both died 
But ashes to dust now we're not here 
Why did you take every single thing I need and want away 
Just to be you
To be new 
In the same hurtful way 
I'm out of touch 
Think too much 
About everything 
Just lost my hold
On us I fold 
Now let's see what life may bring 
But still the meaning don't show..
Vacant spaces…empty holes
