After Forever

Me and her
We met, we loved
I never felt love like this before
My eyes blazed when I saw hers
Sinewy connection among our souls
To eternity, forever

And she left me…
She actually just called me
That cold winter evening
A bottomless pit opened up
Few days before Christmas
Unhappy happiness

I’m sitting here on the plaid couch
My look reflects my soul
It chills the temperature down
Coughing roams trough other rooms
Untasty sound of sickness
Sickness and sickness

I feel like puking
Puking tears and sorrow
But Christmas is coming
Smile for others
Smile for the camera
Snapchat and selfies

One day is gone
The next one is devouring me
Pain is hungry
The week hasn’t even started yet
I let myself fall
Fall with no expectation

I see light at the end of the dull tunnel
It must help me
My only redemption
Step by step I reach closer
Contours of my savior appear
Let’s take a look at the shiny figure
	Oh! It’s me!

Thanks for sharing this... exposing your thoughts through your unique poetic style. Meanwhile, I greet you with the love of the Lord, expressed by John 3:16 of the Bible, "For God so loved the world, that he gave his only begotten Son, that whosoever believeth in him should not perish, but have everlasting life."
