I loved with my whole heart once. I was innocent, hopeful, and wanting. I thought I need you to be whole, That I was missing something until you. I learned my lesson. Only now do I see that I was whole all along. Until you. You broke me into more pieces than I thought I had. You took a part of me that I didn't know existed That piece will never be mine again. And it will be forever yours, and only yours. I hope to never feel a love like this again For I know now what comes from it. We were unhealthily obsessed And now we are unhealthily lying Pretending we are over each other. But our love will always be there. You are the only person I will ever love with my full heart because you took a part of me that can never be replaced.

The piece
I will sail into the night With neither a guide or a light The horizon calls my name And I obey I am so very far away my ship left in a haze The worn out floorboards start to creak and splinter Not able to handle the ferocity of the ocean anymore My ship starts to sink into the murky depths below And I find that I cannot swim So I give in And drown in my own insanity

Immersion
As the date approaches, the feelings rise It's weird how emptiness can be so filling it can consume your body, without a choice. I refused to leave you, to leave the hospital. I wouldn't let go of your soft limp hands. I couldn't look away from your closed eyes. I wanted more than anything for the high peaks in the lines for thumps coming from your chest. for air to be pushing out of your body and air to be brought back in. I couldn't stand to see you anymore laying helplessly on the bed but I couldn't walk out the door, knowing it'd be my last time with you. I knew that once I left that building, I had lost you. Forever. I couldn't accept it. Going home with one less friend. And years without you, I still can't accept it.

unfathomable
Walking through life, it is a blur not being able to give the attention friends require. selfishly taking all your time for yourself but it has to be done. People stare, judge and talk, you see, accept, and listen. absorbing every word into you, nothing can be done. Seeping the words that were once absorbed, unable to hide the feelings that follow. you are only a puppet of the people, stained by the people you call friends.

Stained Skin.
Laying still in my bed, I do not recognize who is laying there Unrecognizable to my eyes, pulling a blank in my mind Someone who once looked so familiar is now a stranger. There’s a sadness where it once was happy A pessimist that once was positive A person that I used to enjoy. The unaccepting stare is not welcoming The negative thoughts are not comforting The utter confusion is all but wanted. Time goes by and no help is asked for No changes occur Nothing. Finally change hits me, but still no better For this confusion is now frustration And this person is growing more distant. Anger for having expectations Anger for not caring anymore Anger for giving up on them. Falling off the bed, hitting the hard floor below The only place to go is up Until the floor falls from underneath me. I try to stand, but don’t have the strength I try to speak, but don’t have the courage I try to listen, but don’t have the patience. Finally at the bottom I look up The eyes of the stranger are staring, Peering inside of me. Trying to make sense of it all Understanding who this person is Though difficult, I recognize them Denial hits, I cannot accept it I refuse to admit what I see Because what I see is me.

Nothing to the Stranger
