I know I can never have you
I have given up long before you thought I would
My heart left my body long before my mind ever did
Do I still think of you?
Sure, I think I always will
Have I left?
Yes, evidently I have.
You call and my throat tightens as I try to become strong and all knowing.
This burning, like there has permanently been is continuously there.
My brain is overwhelmed and I find myself digging at my face with my fingernails.
Wondering if this pain will ever go away.
Like someone has stripped me off my skin, I crawl.
I keep away, and my shoulders twitch uncontrollably.
I question when I started doing that.
I seal my eyes and see the memories that I hold.
keeping my eyes wide open is the only way to sleep I guess.
Sleep---- when will I eternally sleep?
