What travels through your mind when the outside you once knew
turns ice cold?
When you are forever stalked by the growing shadow
of THEIR presence?
Haunting ever haunting....
I loved you, yet you haunt me so.
Day after every long minute....forever.
I see your eyes of thunder-cloud grey..I smell your scent of sea foam and cinnamon toothpaste whispering in the breeze.
I wake restless in the night, your touch brushes against the tear stains on my cheeks,
always there, always watching.
Never part of the present reality, but always in my dreams.
Kill....kill me already
I beg! I plead!
Won't this nightmare ever end?
Won't this empty void ever disappear?
I remember those last few nights spent.
Your eyes bore sallow, hollow light, ebony light,
cheeks sunken to the bone, spindle shaking fingers,
raspy voice....the thick smell of antiseptic.
Drowning, drowning, gasping those last breaths.
No goodbye or I love you.
hand on my cheeks, slowing falling to the sweat soaked sheets.
Never again to fill with warmth.
My best friend? My lover?
no...no...much more
My everything.
....
