What Feels Like Death (a poem)
Sometimes . . .
Sometimes I smile,
remembering the ten thousand different ways
that your arms knew how to embrace
And then my senses start to fade,
for what seems like days
And this smile can't be fazed
Because the thought of how beautiful you were . . .
Is burned into my brain
And sometimes . . .
Sometimes I scream into my pillow,
until I become weak, and I sleep
But no, I never dream
Because dreams only last for so long,
and then I wake up and you're gone
I am left shuddering and starstruck,
from how badly my mind's been ed
See, I've fallen but I dont want to get up
Because the only thing that's up there are your eyes
This weak heart of mine,
Just can't take that sight
See, I've grown . . . truly sick in the head
Facebook statuses, they tear me to shreads
It's that little red box of death
Popping up in the corner of my cell phone
As I curl up in all the moments that I'm alone,
and I bleed, as I read, and I start to see
The girl in your picture is the complere opposite of me
See, that makes me weak . . .
Seeing you shining at your biggest and your brightest
And it's without me . . .
But at the end of the night,
Once bitter tears have dried
At the end of every night
You're oblivious of just how much I cry
And yet I have to smile,
When I think of how much you dont miss me . . .
I smile, because at least now you're happy
