Only Time Will Tell

It feels like the whole word is crashing down around me,

I silence my voice as everything just passes me by.

I don't sleep, I only dream, I can see you two in my dreams as I glaze through another slumber.

Pain is a particular feeling as it tries to eat me away,

Decays me from the inside and devours my self being.

I've come to live with it, to feed off it,

Without it I am confused,

I wonder around like a leaf in the wind without it. 

No direction to go, it will weaken me and make me stronger.

Can it carry me or can it burden me? 

Only Time Will Tell

I feel a certain heartache when reading this. To me, I think love and losing someone to another person. Maybe even unrequited love. Relatable to me, and I very much enjoy relatable poems. It's a beautiful and dark piece, I love it, and I'm definitely going to read more of your works!
