You caress my skin
Leaving me wanting more
I yearn for your touch
I desperately wait for the day that I’m yours
I try to deny but to no avail
If you said wait to the end of time
Then wait I shall
If you said bleed till the last drop
My body would flop
The last word escaped would be your name
For my love will never be in vain
~
Forsaken by this thought
You leave me for nought
Yet you linger in my mind
The thoughts never seem to unwind
~
My skin crawls from the coldness of your abandonment
My breath quickens from my attachment
My heart aches because of the arrangement
My mind left bewildered and fooled
My body left still and damned
~
My soul but a reflection of a cracked mirror
My heart left tattered in pieces
Abused and bruised
Wincing my eyes with every thought
Heart quickening with every sob
Tattooed tears stream down my face
Everything silent but loud
Everything painful but numb
~
Tears stained my face
Lips dried
Eyes puffed
Cheeks bruised
Arms squeezed tightly around me
Holding on for my dear life
Completely still
As if the world would shatter with one breath
~
Inhale
Exhale
Focused on breathing
Thoughts nowhere else
Thoughts of just being
~
The fog slowly cleared
My heart no longer feared
My mind still dimmed
But the light surely peaked
As my view of the world was no longer bleak
