I'm falling through
there's nothing left to do.
I'm falling through,
I'm missing you,
I remember you,
And everything you do.
My shattered memories fade,
I lost myself somewhere between the lonely days.
I'm falling through,
Like I fell for you.
My love for you was all in vain,
I hear your name and I feel the pain.
You dig into my skin,
like mortal sin.
I slip away...
I slip away...
I'm falling through,
I'm missing you,
But where are you?
And in that moment,
with me listening to the sound of your breathing,
time slowed and it became my favorite moment of utter peace.
*please read my note
September is suicide awareness month. 10 months ago I lost my someone I cared about deeply to suicide.
I did not write this poem; my best friend wrote it over 2 years ago about something he was going through at the time and he sent it to me. I've thought about sharing it for a long time, I wanted to be selfish and keep it to myself. I decided to share it with the world in loving memory of him because it's a little piece of him, and he was such a beautiful person and had a beautiful way with words.
