I’ve been looking for you
But I can’t seem to find you

I’ve searched through our heaven
I’ve searched through our hell
I’ve been looking for you
But I can’t seem to find you

You’re hiding far away
Too far to find
I’ve been looking for you
But I can’t seem to find you

All I think of is you
But you must’ve forgotten me
I’ve been looking for you
But I can’t seem to find you

The only explanation
You must hate me but
I’ve been looking for you
But I can’t seem to find you

Though I looked in the light
I looked in the grey and black
I’ve been looking for you
But I can’t seem to find you

I’ve been outside the lines
I’ve been boxed in
I’ve been looking for you
But I can’t seem to find you

I looked in my mind
And in her arms
I’ve been looking for you
But I can’t seem to find you

I looked through my heaven
And all through your hell
I’ve been looking for you
But I can’t seem to find you

I wrote this for a guy who hurt me even though he promised he wouldn't. It's my first attempt at a type of abstract poetry, so please be nice. Thanks! :)

Thank you! And I will be writing more, as the creative process was a bit different than it normally is.
