and here i am,
sitting on my own
eating the food i cook for two
just pretending that you went for a vacation...for a very long time

If my name's been dragged through the mud
Then at least it left a mark

What are you without cursing my legacy?

If not the love we desperately sought,
what else could ache more?
Even a pluviophile would take cover
from a torrential downpour...

I’m not empty.
It’s not that I don’t feel anything.
The exact opposite.

I feel so much.

So much I get desensitized to my own emotions.
They flow around like water in every corner of my body.
Mixing in with my blood until there is no cell untouched.

It used to be a gentle lake.
But now It’s an ocean.
So all I can do is sit here and pretend that I’m a puddle.
Just like everyone else.

to water a dandelion
like a rose
to read poetry
in prose

to see white
when it's painted black
to think it's given
but it's taken back

to catch a glimmer
in shade
to think I've had it all
for all it to fade

to call a foe
a friend
to think we start
we end
