Blow Me Out

I see you still. 
In my dreams.
I love you still. 
But it’s a dark love.

The stars, the moon, seem so much dimmer.
With out your presence. 
You left me in the dark. 
Blind to everything. 

My heart is a shadow of what it use to be.
With out you here. 
I’m not sure what to do. 
But I know I shouldn’t want you. 

I’m only half alive. 
But its all I can seem to manage. 
You left me in this all consuming darkness.
So I have become the darkness. 

You have blown out my light.
