Broke.


This feeling of kneeling on glass
will pass
the pain will subside and the tears
that I cried
will dry,
I'll get by
it's what I do
but
how could I forget you, the way that you've forgotten me?
how can I be happy now that you've gone?
why can I still smell you
when you're no longer here?
and why is it that memories linger on?

When my knees begin to heal will I still feel you standing there
or will I look and wonder where it is you are?
will the gentle touch of morning that creeps up light across my skin begin to compensate
for losing love and my only true soul mate?

I'm still kneeling,feeling pain and thinking that I've been a fool again,waiting for the tears to dry,
wondering why.
