Solitary Strangers

Solitary Strangers

A Poem by Me

Already I am In mourning
Clocking the memories we had
into a box

I will keep them inside
and never re-open them

to do so breaks my heart already
I am already suffering
as if you have already gone

My heart flips into a thousand
different pieces

Like glass, I see through
the perspectives we had

Where will you go when we are gone?

Already you are never coming back
and you haven't yet moved on

to remember you is torture

You kill me softly with your distance
Your sense of being who you are

which doesn't include me
which doesn't exclude me

either way, we are talking together
as if we were already strangers

Already I awake to find that you
are empty in the bed beside me

if I laughed it would break the strain
if I died it would still be the same

we are what we are, solitary strangers
