I'd rather chase both with seawater
From the oceans of despair
And drown in it
Jonan Nov 2013
As though a dream parting when woken
You parted from our house and home
The mornings had become so morose
The bed was too big when alone
But the season changed as it always will
The tears beginning to fade
I slowly find myself less somber
Pain beginning to wane

Keep my feet on the ground
Keep my head in the clouds
Don't let my eyes fall away
And don't let my heart down

She said it doesn't feel a thing like falling
Moreover a flailing trip to the hospital
And smoothed over the fresh scars
Reminding me that there's hope in it all
Not in a broken heart lost inside itself
But in a memory forgiven and saved
It will soon again become whole and full
A new road to travel working to be paved

Keep my feet on the ground
Keep my head in the clouds
Don't let my eyes fall away
And don't let my heart down

The healing process began
Itching scabs cover raw flesh
I let go of you finally
Your poisons no longer linger in my veins
I find it easier to breathe
Without your fumes clogging my lungs
And I'm not happy about what happened
Nor am I whole yet
But I sleep much more soundly
Without your claws in my side
The only thing I wish for is this
Take the memories away along with the last of your things.

A scenario of impossibilities
Another unverse laid over
I realised I was dreaming at once
The moment you pressed your lips to mine
Open my eyes and shudder
Blink away the tears of sleep
Roll over and check the human condition
****** electronic doom device
Your missed calls and messages
Dread creeping into my chest
You're playing me again with your game
You missed me only today
First cheerful morning in over a month
Now the hole grows larger


I despise that I still am in love with you
Not at all a poem. Just need the thought of you out
of my head
Jonan Sep 2013
Like a knife in the back
I can't grasp it.
Jonan Sep 2013
You let your anger bring screams from your mouth
I let my grief grow tall
You soften your blows in mercy of heart
I stand naked before you and all
I drink to see double so I'm no longer alone
Not alone with me in the mirror
You left just over a month ago
Yet I still feel you here
Jonan Sep 2013
When you lose your faith in me
Please don't cry
