I use words
Because my thoughts
Are too abstract

I don’t rhyme
Because my head
Is too full of ****

I amble on
Because my feelings
Can’t be defined

I lie alone
Because my spirit
Won’t be  broken

You don’t have
To love me
I’m good
On my own

You don’t have
To need me
I got this
On my own

You don’t have
To pretend
I’m satisfied
On my own

You don’t have
To say the words
I’m wise enough
On my my own

You don’t have
To stick around
Im strong enough
On my own.

I’m empty
Running on fumes
I’m hanging  
On a thread
And a prayer

I’m nothing
Totally empty
I’m existing
On a moment
And a breath

I’m finished
Nothing left
I’m numb
On a life
And a time

I’m praying
For resurrection
I’m dependent
On a dream
And myself

I’m broken
The pieces
Are far too much
To put together

I’m lost
The distance
Is far beyond
A compass direction

I’m destroyed
The fallout
Is to widespread
For any hope

I’m alone
The aftermath
Is not you concern
For you are gone

Tonight
I hit the wall
Where reality
And loss collide
The sadness sinks in
Weighs heavy
On my being
I need to grieve
But I’m afraid
The finality
Of letting go
Means losing him
And I’m not going ready
To say goodbye

I’m prettier
Than her
I feel petty
For thinking so

I’m smarter
Than her
I’m not sure
That’s even true

I’m better
Than her
When it comes
To loving you

I’m sadder
Than her
I’m not the one
That you want.

You correspond
Because
Your afraid
I’ll float
Away

You inquire
Because
Your scared
I’ll entertain
Another

You linger
Because
Your hopeful
I’ll return
Someday

You wonder
Because
Your terrified
I’ll love
Again
