Heartache

I'd follow you

across the galaxy.

We'd stop lazily

to orbit the stars-

to...

Sometimes

when the night is long

hollow

and dark-

I'll look up at the stars...

Sometimes i think;

Maybe i had it all wrong.

Maybe the signs of you walking away,

...

I am invisible – but yet he can see

He comes in from work – but he doesn’t see me.

He asks...

I've written you out of mind.

I see you, and it doesn't even register.

Usually.

Seized with confusion

Fragmented, weary, and grim

I could write a million poems about how soft your eyelashes are.

Or the crinkles around your eyes,...

My heart will never be whole again.

The wind whistles through the hole in my heart.

And no...

It comes in waves, you know.

I lay down in the sand,

And it’s quiet and soft, you know....

I don’t know what to do with you.

You took up so much of my mind.

And now you can’t....

My hands are frigid.

A shadow of what they once were.

My fingers are rigid.

The...

I loved you.

Only now is it entirely profound.

It hurts to know

That you didn’t...
