After the coma

When you left, I lost a part of myself.

I thought that piece of me faded and died.

I stumbled on my own ignorance,

drug induced, comatose,

and torn at the seams.

When I began to grab on to reality

and climb out of my own hell,

I realized you didn’t leave; I did.

In the back of my mind,

you were always there.

 I just created a plane of misery

contributing to my own demise.
