there's a certain type of pain
that leaves you helpless, hopeless
I can withstand any pain
just not this type
not coming from you
on the phone last night
latifeh May 2016
I didn't know
you could miss someone so much
that your heart aches
and it hurts to breathe
hurts to speak
I didn't know
you could love someone so much
that hearing their voice
is the only way
to calm your breath
and tame your heartbeat

even half the world
broke out in wars
when ours began
You've moved onto her
The exact opposite of me
Long hair
Flat stomach
Brown skin
5'3
Smooth laugh
Lots of friends
You gave her the things you once gave me
Your old blue sweatshirt
Long stares from across the room
Your heart full of love
Sweet smiles and sly jokes
You have let go of us
And I'm left here holding onto you
Today was a ****** day.
