The narcissism of your
Depression debilitates
Me, drains me of love for you
Tag: bad feelings
Reconstructed
One day I will be over
This broken brain, shattered heart,
And I won’t know you at all.
Before and After
I thought I knew you before
We entered quarantine, that
Our shared experiences
Would carry us through the worst
Of times. You are a stranger.
Perhaps you always have been.
Things Fall Apart
It’s not ambiguous. The
Net tightens. The darkness falls.
Everything we feared, comes true.
Dark Thoughts
They infest me, burrow through
My skin, prey on my peace of
Mind, leaving me hollowed out.
Break me open and feast on
My substance, for I am so
Desecrated, empty, dead.
Unheard
Every word I’ve spoken to
You has been wasted breath. You
Never heard a word I said.
Resignation
You try and read my
Expression, but don’t read the
Writing on the wall.
I do remember
All that you’ve done, I just try
Not to dwell on it.
But my heart still knows
Who has cut it and it wants
To keep you away.
Coup de Grace
Once I’d given you
Your heart’s desire, my presence
Was superfluous.
That revelation
Left me gutted on the floor,
Screaming and bleeding.
Love’s Punisher
She is a hydra,
The harder I fight, the worse
It gets, sharper knives.
