Lachrymose

i lied awake.
i lied in your wake.
that night, that night,
still as my breathing,
lays in my mind,
replays itself inside my head.
don't run, don't run.
they're faster than you imagine.
i cry for you.
don't crash, i'll meet you.
i feel your heartbeat,
i swear it moved with mine,
once.
no more, no more.

There is an eternal sadness here...poetry should make you feel the emotions of the writer, whether the experiences are the same or not...you've done that here

I actually have no idea why it is in red. I suppose it works though. Haha

Love the first two lines especially

This a very interesting poem. I liked how you used the red text color to represent pain and blood I assume. Overall I love it and keep it up
