Bethany Jan 2019
I don’t know how
Without you
I guess I’ll learn

I feel lost
Without you
I guess I’ll find my way

I am alone
Without you
I guess I’ll be ok

I am good
Without you
I guess I’ll move on
Bethany Jan 2019
I have no flow
I’m either
A babbling brook
Or full on tsunami

I lost the rhythm
I’m either
Stiff as a board
Or a gyrating mess

I hold out hope
I’m either
Filled with belief
Or running on empty

I long for answers
I’m either
Head in the clouds
Or relentless in my quest

I’m me
I’m either
Perfectly imperfect
Or flawed flawlessly

Cut
The sharp point
Brings relief
I can’t explain
The release

The quick pain
Frees the hurt
I hold inside
Like poison

The afterward
Uncovers a calm
I crave
Despite the scar
Bethany Dec 2018
We are over
Yet your there

You aren’t attracted
Yet your there

You don’t love me
Yet your there

We ran our course
Yet your there

I’ll ignore you
Yet your there

I don’t need you
Yet your there

I’m ok without you
Yet your there

I hardened my heart
Yet your there

I love another
Yet your there
Bethany Dec 2018
Who
I’m wanted
There are a few
Who desire
What I offer

I may be loved
There’s no proof
Who might
Long For this

I am scared
There are moments
Who knew
Days are long

I’m ok
There’s no choice
Who gets
That I’m alone
Bethany Dec 2018
Your scent
Lingers
On my skin

My lips
Raw
From your need

My body
Spent
With satisfaction

My soul
Wondering
What this means

My heart
Oblivious
Because I know better
Bethany Dec 2018
I miss you
The us we were
The man
I knew

Life moved
Now you are you
The man
I don’t know

Now I mourn
Our past
The man
I lost

Time evolves
You fade away
The man
I loved
