I Don't Understand

I Don't Understand

A Poem by Alex

Why is it different this time?

I've moved away from the ones I love

Multiple times

I got over them

Now you're leaving

And I'm not over you

I'm not ready for

This

This pain

I don't understand

Why it never

Hurt

Before

I could still have

Contact

With you

But

I know

That once you leave

You'll forget

What you have of me

Never speak

Never reply

I'll melt away

You'll never

Think

About me

Talk

To me

The longest conversation

Wasn't long enough

Not even a conversation

I don't understand

How can you hurt me so badly

It's as if

All the nerves

In my body

Are in your hand

Ripped

Torn

Broken.

Stinging

Bleeding

Dying.

 

Dead.

 

Is what you left me

An empty shell

 

But

 

I know

I'll get over you

Eventually

It'll take a while

A

Long

Long

Time

But I'll let go

The only reason

I feel pain

Is because I'm holding it

Death grip

If I could just pry myself

Off

This pain

It'd disappear

Vanishing

As it falls

Falling

Falling

Falling

One day

I'll be free

But for now

I'm

Destroyed

I'm prone to obsessions, whether it's a band or a book or a language or a country. Once I start eating chocolate I have difficulties stopping. The Internet is kind of essential to my existence. .. more..
