Alone

How i feel at the moment

Alone is how i feel today

Just yesterday i held hope that you'd still love me

Your words shouldn't hurt as much as they do

I give them too much power

My every word will be influenced by the emotion you draw out of me

It took so long to get over what happened and yet....I'm writing this

I have abandoned many things in live to mourn your loss

What does that say about me

As much as your abandonment says about you

You  are out of my reach and yet a few steps off

Just beyond my reach and in my mind

We'll always exist together because time is an illusion

And yet you're not next to me

Contradictions

They seem to keep us apart

I have too much to lose now to let you completely tare me down again

I never noticed just how fickle you are

Til you broke me a second time

You peeled the scab and replaced it with a salted peice of lime

Now the lime salt and blood driip down my chest and over my body

It covers me in the power i have given your words

This is deeply powerful, It seems you have a good heart and played the fool, but realized it. Great peice

Ouch! Very nice Patricia, we do give those we care for too much power don't we? But that's the thorn of possibility on the rose of love isn't it?

In the end, we're still going to grab for the bloom, and just hope that the only pain, is that we are apart.

Great job here!

It sucks when the person you love does not return the love. But we are still young....we'll find someone who will return the love :) great piece. it was cathartic for me to read.
