Dormant

To take a breath without the pain. Hold the tears back attempt to stay sane. A day too long the hurt now has set in. Bone deep consuming never to leave again. Heart tearing in two then two more. Hollow inside, it's the end for sure . Just being, just living, just walking, this land with such emptyness inside. Never wanting human contact, just wanting to hide. Hot burning tears, streaks of fire down my cheek. Heart steady pounding eventually gets weak. Lost because of loss. Pain because of hurt. Emptyness sinking deep to your core. Sadness settles never to stop it's torment. Love kept deep inside but laying silent dormant.
