i spent so many seconds
bled into minutes
into hours
into days
thinking of you
what hurts most
is that i know you haven’t done the same.
somewhere out there
you sleep
untroubled
the sun is coming up
and my blistering eyes can barely
stand to see it.
i’ve gone blind
looking for what we used to be
even when i sleep
when i dream
of you still caring
i just want to wake up.
i want the dreams to end.
it hurts to face
what i can’t have
in this rubble
i see pieces of us
and i pick them up even though
i don’t know what i’ll do with them.
the glue that held them together
is so very gone
