sometimes
i wonder
if i'm dreaming, so
i pinch myself,
but
you're always
still there with me,
holding me afloat.
even then,
i can't help but fear:
what if
we're forced apart
and
i drown?
sometimes a life preserver isn't enough to float ashore.

i kept lying to myself
"everything will be the same"
but after you left
everything changed
the lies we tell ourself only make the pain hurt more.

as our love derails
the sparks
ignite a fire
burning your touch
it stings my skin,
torching your memories
it clears my brain,
scorching my heart
you char to ashes
you are extinct to me.

the words of judgement
spurring out of your mouth
doesn't hurt the one being judged
the way it reveals your insecurities
there is an illustration with this, but I can't place it here. you can check it out on my instagram or Facebook page

we are in love with
who we think we are
instead of
who we really are

little drops
of your love
stained my body

a reminder of who
we use to be together

now wash away
with the waves
of healing
