[Closing the blinds, shutting my eyes, I lay on my bed as you run through my head. And...I cant stand without feeling like i'm going to collapse, yet time still feels like it'll never pass. I miss breathing your air, i miss the smell of your hair. And i know these tears wont cover up that your not here. I'm closing the blinds, shutting my eyes, my tears revive. Through the blue, i see the truth, baby i miss you]

I like the way u wrote this peice its sounds poetic becasue of the rhymes but yet it also conveys the feel of self talk or a stream of consciousness... Good Job
