Memories of HIm

I didn't cry when we broke up...

I forced myself to believe I didn't have a reason too...

But now I realize without him...

My chest is an empty cavity.

All that I have are these memories....

Of him and me...

That the demons use to taunt me.

Everyone said we were a perfect match....

And I truly believed we were....

Everything about him felt right, he was my special 'zing'.

But, of course, fate brings me someone...

To learn to love and truly care for...

Someone to grow attached too.

Then in cruel irony....

Rips them right out of my reach...

Leaving me alone.

LIke a baby fawn without a mother...

Laying in terror...

As the predators stalk closer.

But the briars keep them at bay...

Crossing no-mans land is a for them..

An impossible feat.

So they barrage me with attacks...

Leaving bruises and scars...

As only their words make it through.

Soon they discover some rose briars....

Simply have steel thorns that can't be swayed...

So in here I will rest.

Clinging to the slim hope...

Maybe on day he'll return...

And awaken me from this listlessness.

I hope he comes...

And rather quickly...

Before I become trapped in my thoughts of what could have been.
