If it were all just gone

It just wasn't there

Would I disappear?

Would I even care?

Avoiding the arrangement

A blindspot in my mind

A space in what's important

A black hole of some kind

It walks right beside me, invisible to most

Not an apparition, not the holy ghost

Stumble through another day

Not knowing what is wrong

Not stolen, not lost or broken

Been missing for so long

Can't quite find it in me

Fading pulse, can I survive?

My heart fails me again

Flatlined but still alive

It walks right beside me, invisible to most

Not an apparition, not the holy ghost

Dragging it behind me, can't hold on anymore

Slips through my fingers and scatters on the floor

It hovers right above me as we move from door to door

When I hang my head in shame, it lies there on the floor

Searching for what I may never know

It's missing, I can feel it

Can't just let it go

When I reach out, I can feel it

It walks right beside me, invisible to most

Not an apparition, not the holy ghost

It hovers right above me as I move from door to door

When I hang my head in shame, it lies there on the floor

Talks from inside me, silent to most

Not the voice of God, not the only ghost

Dragging it behind me, can't hold on any more

Slips through my fingers and scatters on the floor

It lies there on the floor

Missing
