Glass in the rain

I held your name too long. It cut the inside clean. Cold rain on the window glass Still looks like you to me. My hands keep going numb when The room turns blue. I trace your outline slow, Like I can bring you through. Don't say it fades, don't say it's gone. I keep the wound, I keep it on. Glass in the rain. Glass in the rain. I hear you break, then start Again. Glass in the rain. Glass in the rain. I want your shadow To stay in my veins. Your coat still on the chair, Your laugh in the hall. The mirror keeps your shape, Then gives me back it all. I sleep with half a light And wake to the same ache. A room full of your silence and the little Sounds it makes. Don't say it fades, don't say it's gone. I keep the wound, I keep it on. Glass in the rain. Glass in the rain. I hear you break, Then start again. Glass in the rain. Glass in the rain. I want your shadow To stay in my veins.
