Gasp. Exhale. Shudder.
Dry
air grates aching lungs,
Watch him walk away, frozen,
Blink
back tears, let one slip,
Lone river of sorrow running down your
cheek,
Alone.
Forget
how to breath,
Forget how to move,
Forget how to look away,
Gasp. Exhale. Shudder.
Pain
burns your chest,
Heart breaks, fractures,
Mouth dry, vision
blurred,
Knees go weak, world spinning,
Lie down, break down,
let yourself rest,
Gasp. Exhale. Shudder.
Stiffen
that spine,
No time to be weak,
Clear that mind,
Shattered
heart cries out still,
Silence it, shut it up tight,
Stop its
wailing, stop its whining,
Stop listening to its cries,
Deny
the pain til it dies,
Breathe. Exhale.
In control now,
good,
Pain won't stop you, won't let it,
Time to move on,
you're strong,
Time to move on, don't look back,
Don't look
back to find you've left your heart behind.
