I will wear your ashes around my neck

I will wear your ashes around my neck

A Poem by thespaceinmybed

Disguising my black heart
With the empty husk of your warmth
Tell me what to do
I'm losing sleep and a steady grip
On what is right
What is true
It took us too many months to bury you
And now we steal part of your memory
Selfishly
I want to feel your love next to my soul
Its not a justifiable reason
But I can't let go
Tell me what to do
How to deal with the loss
How to not become a monster
In the space where the walls are closing in
And all I want to do
Is feel your hand on top of mine
Telling me that everything is going to be ok from now on
That there aren't parts of me that are missing 
That I am not losing my mind

Well written. Lots of cliche and ambiguous phrasing, but executed with smooth precision. Again, well done. :)
