Every Day

I've written you a message, 

On my phone or a letter in my head

Only to erase it every day 

As I lay down and cried inside my bed 

I've clung to the moments 

The ones that made us laugh 

Or the times I felt so loved 

Where finally I felt whole 

You as my other half 

Unlike your scent, on the shirt you left behind 

Your memory doesn't fade 

Standing in the sunlight, 

so cold and so frayed 

I am damaged but not broken 

Thinking of all the words I should have said 

Now forever to be unspoken 

Am I really left to wonder 

What if? 

Was it something that I missed? 

Did you wait for my words? 

Was I the reason we were dismissed?

Oh, if you only knew 

Just how my stomach feels 

Every time I think of you 

How much of my day 

The pain of your absence steals 

Or the feelings 

I cannot erase 

When I look to my right 

At the spot that was your place

Sweetly suffering from self inflicted pain. To write and erase everyday just hurts. Great write

Great read.

With love
