Dementor's Kiss

This time last year, I had my world upside down. I opened my eyes, laid on bed and didn't move. Then a little, I moved to turn and found emptiness laying there, silently, as if waiting for me to pass, to somewhere where it had voice. This time last year, I loved and lost Them. I ran and ran in circular motions and then in the opposite direction, I prayed to trees and the grass too, all in hopes for you. This time last year, I died the thousandth Time. I found the place, dug the grave, took my desires and self worth too, fearing my heart would want too, I trembled but kept it there and left it there. This time last year, I couldn't feel Anything. I had my skin ripped off my body, heart buried, life churned, numb, senselessly numb, I cried with my eyes closed and let my tears burn my eyelids. This time and this year, It's all coming back to me, the eyes now dried and heart kept forlorn buried, the memories of last year, feels long gone. I may give up everything to feel again.
