A faint fog falls
Over my tired eyes
It's the same that covered them before
Yet still a part of me dies
Our gaze connects,
For only just a moment
My heart skips a beat
I'm locked eyes with a poet
An uninvited smile splays on my lips
A second of joy
Then ruined by reality
For, I am just a boy
She is a girl
Small and kind
I cry that I can't have her
Because my soul to you is signed
I've recently found myself back in my shell
Pretending to be someone I'm not
And I think I know why.
I've pulled back from people
Only interacting with animals and strangers online
I'm opening my phone
To nothing
No messages, no emails, no missed calls,
All I'm getting is radio silence
The sinking feeling in my heart returned
The one where you know something is wrong
Stinging my eyes
The tears come
Pouring down
Relentlessly.
Still breathing
Still warm
Yet dead
To me
And me alone.
Grief floods me
Again
I'm drowning
