an oreo cake, an apron

a roomfull of laughter
the lightest of hearts
a brush on the shoulder
you’re home ‘round these parts

and now i feel empty and
rootless apart
i don’t know where’s home
there’s nowhere to start

don’t know how to find you
now that you’ve gone
can’t get you back again
so safe in your arms

you’d hold me tight
when i’d shiver and shake
and now i am seizing
you’re lying in wake

i don’t know where you’ve gone
thought you were right here
thought i’d have you forever
when i was too weak to steer

the laughs from your belly
the joy from your soul
i can’t know it again
i will never be whole.
