Empty

Empty

A Poem by Vivien Shapiro
"

Can you handle this

"

My lungs are dry from all the cigarettes I've used to try and burn the lump in my throat that you left me with. Just two months ago you told me I was the brightest star in your sky and now here I am lost in the darkness. It's ironic how you were the only one who could stop the pain yet you were the one who made every bone in my body ache. I cannot explain the emptiness I feel with you gone and the bags under my eyes are from the thoughts of you at night.
