I am paralyzed
You are no
Longer with me.
I can no
Longer breathe.
My soul
And my future
Wrapped up
In your delicious,
Warm, strong arms
Is now crushed
Under the weight
Of what never was.
I can no
Longer fathom
A world with color.
I will never
Again be whole.
It was always
You.
Now it
Isn’t.
And I am alone,
Dark, longing,
Hating that I
Ever allowed
Myself to be
Sucked into
Your web of lies.
Knowing you
So well,
You would think
I would have
Known the truth.
I did,
I just
Turned my
Back on it.
I am drowning.
I am overcome.
I am without ME.
I am without YOU.
I am without LIFE.
