Me or you?

Why does your soul cry

When your eyes meet mine?

Why does your smile fade

When my voice cascades?

 

How do you flow 

Through the crowd?

How do you speak

Through your tears?

 

Why are your eyes a sunset sky

When they still always make me cry?

Why is your soul like the stars

When mines just left with scars?

 

How are you still alive 

When with every word, I die?

Every cold glare

Every unread text

I die in your loving arms.

    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

    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
