Forsaken

Take it. Take it and throw it away. It will never be the same anyway. A hole. A hole in my chest. Ragged, raw and hollow. The pain. The pain is so intense, I'm numb. It's a struggle to get through the day. My bed. My bed is my refuge. If only I could stay here forever. Do I? Do I get up and pretend it doesn't hurt? Maybe they'll all buy it. Can't breathe. Can't breathe when I remember. That smile, that embrace I miss fiercely. Were we? Were we really happy? Maybe I imagined it all. Cast aside. Cast aside with no reason. I can't do this anymore, Love is Pain.

Aleera, You are such an inspiration to myself and many more as I read your powerful words and smile. How could anyone not want to love and be close with such a beautiful and creative person with a glow shining from the inside out. You are so gifted Aleera... MPK
