This is a poem that describes a loss of love. |
| I vividly remember the drop in my stomach. The lump in my throat and the slowing of my heart. I can recall the air rushing out of my lungs. My mouth went dry and my knees went weak. I was dizzy and my chest was heavy. I suddenly become cold and tears burn my lids. There was so much that needed to be said. But when I opened my mouth, nothing came out. I listened to the beats of silence until my ears feel clogged. I started to sweat. I felt drained. I closed my eyes. Not a single coherent thought went through my mind. I felt lost, I felt behind. I wrapped my arms around myself. As if that would keep me together. I tried to remember the softness of your voice. I couldn't see straight. The pattern on my ceiling started to look like you. And the light blinded me. Burning my eyes so I could only see you. |
