Am I Home

A song I have been working on.. let me know what you think

There's a ciggarette on the balcony,
Still burning from when you left me,
I pick it up and finish it,
Just to taste you on my lips,

And there's just one thing I want to know,
Do you still sleep alone?

It's been almost a year now,
Since we moved at a different pace,
When I saw you through the half light,
I didn't recognise your face,

And there's just one thing that I'd like to know,
Do you still sleep alone?

I see you wear make up now,
Hang with different friends,
I see you've filled the space I left you,
Brings me closer the end,

And there's just one last thing to know,
Do you still sleep alone?

Because if you don't.
Then I am not home.

This is quite beautiful.

"There's a ciggarette on the balcony,
Still burning from when you left me,
I pick it up and finish it,
Just to taste you on my lips,"

I could feel so much emotion though these lines.
great write.
