Is this lust?

Time slips away from us

My guard slips down 

Her hands slips in my hair 

And somehow I slip further out of love 

 

I dream of her touch 

I think she dreams I'm someone else 

In my dreams we never run out of time 

I'm so glad this wasn't a dream

 

I think I touched the heavens

When I touched her face.

Today my bare feet touch the hard ground

As I touched my bleeding heart

 

For a moment, the world went still

The thought of her still lingers in my mind

Our chemistry is still there

How is it still so wrong?

 

She's slipping away for the summer

I'll dream of her 

Touched by her I am no longer

And I'll still be here next fall

    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

    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
