I'm done

They say it will pass

They say I'll feel better 

"Time will fix it"

"Just put her pictures in a shredder"

 

But it's not that easy

To just "move on"

I don't think you ever really can

Yet my name is just another word in her song

 

That's all I am anymore 

A lyric to sing

A name,

A "thing"

 

They never told me breakups could be this hard 

Not the movies or books,

Not my parents 

Who now have strange looks

 

I don't care anymore though 

She's done.

It's over

Yet my grief has still won

 

I know no one will love her the same 

Not like I did

She goes for people who can't 

Like a desperate little kid

 

I'm done.

    Retract and hide

    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

    Radio silence

    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

  • Poetry

    By Bee.Lover

    It's dark out now.

    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
