The pain

You liked me so much
and refused to leave me

But I left you behind
In the past

I could feel you
Trying to grab me again

I will not let you near me
I will not experience you anymore
A decade with you kept me away from everything around me. Now it's my time to keep you away from me.

Burying my heart
In your hands
Like it’s a treasure map
Showing my love for you
Hiding my kiss
In your mouth
Like it’ll be the last
Thing I ever do
Lowering myself into the ground
I won’t even make a sound
Burying myself
So you don’t have to

every time i think about us
i remember the way we smiled while looking into each other's eyes
but every time i realize you're no longer here
my eyes well up
and become flooded with a pool of tears

my heart stings and longs for you
i just don't know why i wasn't enough for you to stay
i miss you so much
maybe you'll come back some day
i wish i appreciated you more when you were still here

On my windowsill,
of that indigo night
you took me,
and I haven't
been the same since.

Something about you
makes me want to
be a better man.
I've grown wings,
so I take to the sky.

check out my youtube channel where I read my poetry.
Your silence was a direct infliction of harm on my mind.

You could have used any other direct form of violence to settle scores with me.

You chose to hit me where it hurts most.

The people take the flowers
By their hands from the plants
to end that life in a single day
You broke my heart by your words from my body to end my feelings in a single day

Parents bark, bite, and blame.

I raise my earphones' volume so high, that I don't hear my pain.
