Since you left me baby.

Since you left me baby.

Since youl left me baby
I drink too much
I dont eat enough
I hardly sleep at all
my phone in my hand
I write long sad text to you
and never hit send.
It keeps my shaking hands busy.
looking at my ceiling
its like a movie screeen
I play videos of the other us.
who didĀ  not fight drink wine
and hurl insults like grenades.
theres you serene and beautiful
me with a neat haircut
Hey I am holding our baby.
it fades and just the noiseĀ 
from a police car siren screams
in the inner city street.
I light a cigarette.
the smoke cools my mood.
I am empty and desolate
I want to pray to a god
to turm me into the dude in theĀ 
ceiling video.
but he doesent hear me.
in the morning
I look into the mirror
over the bathroom sink.
I want to blame you
For the delipadeted wreck
that stares back at me
look at that he has tearsĀ 
Streaming down his face.
I cant blame youĀ 
as hard as I try.
It was my fault.
only mine.
Mea culpa....
Mea maxima culpa

myfault..my most grievous fault

I know those feelings and actions all to well, it's relived every day, it's grief that won't leave you alone, its a thought in your head that you die for just to know if they felt it even just a little, the anxiety slowly eats you away and even in the depths of your heart break you still can't bring yourself to move on. Your poetry is moving and well written. Thank you for sharing!!! Much love!!!
