He looked at me
With new eyes,
Like he was
Seeing me truly
For the very first time.

Forever missing the time
When I loved him with
My whole heart, because
Now I'm only loving with
What's left of it.

I miss him
With my whole heart,
Like a piece of me
Was ripped out and I'll
Never find a way to
Fill that void again.

for him to forget his feelings

alcohol ran through

right in the middle, ready to love
each other where they were
always meant to be.

on my screen i can't

all over again,
even though I know
he'd have to feel it one time first
to even fall at all.

And it was like suddenly
She didn't belong with him
Or anywhere else.

questions
Marina Drab Dec 2016
I didn't see you today
And it hurt my heart
Almost as much as
When I do you see you.
Why do I do that?
Why does your absence hurt
Just the same as your presence?
Why?

"how are you?"
a question she often got
but never knew how to respond to,
lies like "great" or "just fine"
cracked her voice so much
you could see inside her
crumbling soul if you looked hard enough.

Seeing you in my sleep
Went from my wildest dream
To my worst nightmare.

I can't imagine anything
More painful than watching
The one you love
Love someone else
They way they should
Be loving you.

I'm sorry I'm such a mess
Every time I see you
It strikes a match inside me
I could rise up from ashes
Or burn right to the ground.

Like yesterday's trash
And all I would think about
Is the way his skin felt
Wrapped around my own.

Stained
Marina Drab Dec 2016
When he no longer had my heart,
I felt so clean.
Like I was wearing a white dress.
No stains,
never ruined.
I am once again stained.
Now it's in a pile of ***** white dresses stacking up
next to all your skeletons in my closet.

If  I could feel colors,
My body would be red,
Head to toe.
Red for the way I came to a sudden
Halt when you said her name instead of mine.
Red for the anger in my veins,
running through me like lightening.
And red for the fire in my heart ,
burning strong for how much I still love you.

You were iridescent; there were moments
where I found myself breathless, speechless,
dumbfounded by your presence.
And now I have come to a point
where your absence leaves me feeling the same way.

She was an open book, waiting to be read,
He had a tendency to skim the lines.
Either way, they never wound up on the same page.
Marina Drab Dec 2016
The first mistake was thinking
I was the problem without a solution.
Really he just wasn't the
Missing variable I needed.
