I’ll never know why Or understand how To have faith again When love dissipates It’s like I try to breathe underwater And I’m surprised when I choke Nothing I ever accomplish will provide inner peace As if my heart is on a leash- Leapt out, onto the street Away from it all In a dreamless sleep I can’t see the light Your beauty misshapen Why did you leave us here? Without a goodbye, Clarity And the grief comes in spurs of panic attacks My mind clouds with an emptiness Loss of laughter, Loss of understanding, The glue to our family The glue to my anxiety, My light Now gone.
