With You I'm Alone

With each moment, I walk closer and closer to the valley that takes me

to the skies.  

You and I know the valley. It’s spoken of before we depart.

Before I walk through, I want to tell you…

We grow older…instead of warmth I feel cold, are you?

Faces frozen in time.

Feelings left to be told.

Tears held in, swallowed whole.

I was dead before departing, with every sharp word, you took a piece

Of me.  

Love?

Love… still, it’s here...

 

 

What did I become in this life?

Child bearer, convenient housekeeper, someone

just someone…

 

You left me a long time ago!

With you by my side, I’ve walked alone.

No hand to hold.

Blank stares and, no response.

Alone, taken the world on , in front of those who  need me.

And those who stab me as I try stepping  forward.

Pushing as I’m being Pulled.  

You, to say, Nothing

And your nothings are awful!

Your something’s are worse

and your looks ****

I raise my hands to the skies

questions unanswered.

Tired, I don’t need to know.
