“The floorboards still creak your name,
what has it been?,
3 days,
since you left me,
since you took me whole,
and left,
your touch still lingers,
somewhere on my body,
somewhere i can feel it,
your touch electrifies my body,
especially when someone else touches me,
i think it’s been 3 days 2 hours,
exactly,
since i got the call,
quotes,
your favorite quotes written on my forehead,
is it too obvious,
i have become a walking tragedy,
my sadness is an anchor that i bring along,
everywhere i go,
it’s been 3 days 2 hours 8 minutes,
since i heard the news,
“he’s gone”,
were those words,
what are words,
just incoherent sounds that line together,
look it’s 8pm,
yet here i am screaming your name,
are you really gone,
i ask the skies,
all i see is grey,
baby,
how could you do this to me,
we were in this together,
forever,
forever i said,
and you would say,
“nothing lasts forever”,
i miss your voice,
****
is that my 7th cup of coffee,
i only drink alcohol with you remember,
drunk nights,
sober kisses,
ah you can’t be gone,
you can’t be,
**** i love you so much,
but you’re gone,
and i am shattered,
all my pieces are on the ground,
i can see them,
but i am not going to fix myself no more,
people may see me,
being broken and sad,
but lovers will see me,
as someone who was loved,
and that’s all i need,
people to know i was loved,
and no one else could kiss me like you did.”
