Mary M-K Poet I do not know?

Roses Are Not Red

Blood stains cover the person you use to be
Each drop is a memory gone
I know you loved me 
And that’s what helps me move on. 
You’re stuff still lays here 
I can’t seem to throw it away  
But I can’t bear to have it near.
Every time I look at it, I think of you and how you disappeared. 
You vanished from my life, a ghost of your former self stayed. 
The person I once knew was gone.  
Since then, I haven’t seen your face.  
A glimpse of you shows up in my mind, 
On repeat, the only thing keeping you alive. 
A part of me still misses you 
Another part of me wonders what for? 
I think I miss the parts of you 
that were good for my soul. 
The parts of you that didn’t have me crying on my bedroom floor. 
And I try to remember everything,  the way our bodies interlaced
I try to think of the way you felt, 
The gentleness of your touch, your endless embrace. 
But the feeling is gone
And is now erased.
