Life after Love

Do you hear that?
The silence so deafening..
The gut wrenching sound of NOTHING.
That's because you took EVERYTHING.
I was just barely clinging to a pulse
when you raped me of my heartbeat.

I'm dying..

The cold linoleum floor
becomes my only friend
as tears roll down my
face while I pray for
these dog days to end.

I'm dying..

Sick to my stomach,
I regurgitate my sullen soul.
She stares at me, weakend,
withered, and unwhole.

i'm dying..

What have you done?
I gave you my all and
in return you gave me none.
How could you do this to me?
Rob me of my existence leaving
me with an emptiness so haunting.

I'm dying..

loved the raw emotions... words spoken from a broken heart.
"the cold linoleum floor becomes my only friend as tears roll down my face while I pray for these dogs days to end." Wow! Been there
