Him

A Poem by misunderstood

a poem that i wrote with someone who forever will be with me in mind

Him:
with this emptiness inside I can’t seem to breathe
can’t seem to see
can’t seem to feel
x
my world is blacked out
there is nothing left
x
nothing to love
nothing to live for
x
he had told me forever
but that was a lie
x
I should have known
shouldn’t have let myself be blinded by something so foolish
x
but the fact that he’s gone
doesn’t change
x
when I think about him
tightness builds in my chest
x
I shake and I shutter
and the tears spill over
x
I choke back the tears
but they continue to fall
x
they think I’m insane
because I care so much
x
but caring is what he loved about me
he said that if I stopped he’d stop caring too
x
and I believed him
how stupid I was to ever do that
x
he just waited until I crashed and burned
and then he simply laughed
x
which is why they think I’m crazy
they told me I should be happy he’s gone
x
but it doesn’t matter what they say
for there will forever be emptiness inside
