Loneliness and heartbreak
I stare at you,
And you quietly stare back at me.
My eyes are slowly brimming;
Ocean blues calmly trying to battle the storm brewing
That’s when I hear it—
The audible tearing noise,
I then realize that I can feel something too.
Disbelief has locked me into a state of shock;
I remain helpless, still staring at you,
As my heart is carefully torn from my chest,
Gingerly lifted out, as to only leave one void.
And then you turn your back, with my heart in your hand.
Only a murmur is spoken, left to hang in infinity…
“Goodbye...”
The rest of my body remains pristine, you made sure of that.
So I could attempt to carry on, with this little void in my chest.
I have an echo of a heartbeat, as to still move my blood,
However, I no longer have a home for my emotions…
They begin to run rampant over my body,
trying to find a new place to stay.
They try hiding in my head,
but they only send the storm over the edge,
And cause the boat that held my sanity to flip.
They have a go at my muscles,
But they know nothing of how these work,
And only send me into shakes.
They move under my skin,
But my emotions have no colour or warmth,
So they cause me to pale and get goose bumps.
They curl up in my stomach,
leaving no room for meals.
Finally my emotions realize where home is,
they return back to what used to be called home.
The void that has been getting smaller, slowly closing up,
Leaving no room for my orphan emotions.
They take to storming their previous lot,
Tearing and gnashing about,
Widening my void once more…
