Marooned

the words don’t flow            
as freely as they used to            
             
my muse has left me            
             
i tried to write              
about my sorrow            
i can’t...              
it’s too painful            
             
besides that...            
             
no one knows            
what it feels like            
             
to lose everything            
to have nothing            
             
he knows...            
             
four years of sleep              
deprivation            
a year              
and a half of isolation            
             
imprisoned by my past            
             
it’s brutal what loss              
can do... loss, life              
and a man              
who can’t love            
             
i relapsed...            
             
i’m exhausted            
my body, on the              
verge              
of giving up            
             
there’s only so              
much              
a woman can handle...            
             
that’s why i'm taking a break
