Shifts and Turns
I looked deep into your blank stare
And when I did, I didn’t like what I found there
I listened hard to your shattering words
As they splintered in and out of my ear drums
Once,
Telling me who you are, is not who you were
Before. Before all of this
Telling me who you were, ceases to exist these days
My heart shifts and turns with every thought of this
Its constant weight is drowning me,
So much that I,
That I cant catch my breath
This morning you packed your bags, and you checked out
Out of this memory, out of this lifestyle
But as I am wondering around this empty house,
Your presents still surrounds me
and makes me feel that much more lonely
What will life be like 21 days from now.
I fantasize about it before I sleep
Hoping it will seep into my dreams
But my fear wakes me from dead sleep,
Worrying things will stay the same
We have burned all the bad memories,
And buried them deep into the earth
Hoping to never relive them again,
So you can finish with this death
