Words Fail Me

When the words fail me
I try over and over
but the world is gone
and I'm falling
just not free
instead haunted
while people I knew
are in the skies
and I'm on the ground
but the words fail me
what was I meant for
if not for
sitting
watching
you do your hair
and yesterday I smelled you
yet today I spelled you
and you won't look back
but it's all I can do
for
I was meant for loving
and I know I cannot go back
to ruins
so words fail me
but I keep trying
