Standing In Silence...

Thoughts….
All leading back to you...
You and this horrible situation
That we’re in together.
You say it’s not my problem,
But it is.
You say not to worry about it,
But I do.
How couldn’t I?
You’re the one true thing in my life
That actually makes me happy,
And now you’re being taken away too…
HOW AM I SUPPOSED TO REACT?!?!
HOW AM I SUPPOSED TO DEAL WITH THIS?!

Hyper-ventilating…
My stomach’s in knots…
Just from trying to breathe…

Every time I think of you,
Another tear falls….
Because I think of all the times,
That we’re not going to have together,
That I shouldn’t spend with anyone else…

HOW CAN LIFE BE SO CRUEL?!
How can life be so cruel……..?

You pull me closer to you,
As you softly whisper in my ear,
“I will always love you…..Forever…”

The words I’ve been looking for,
Just said at the wrong time…
Because you’re leaving me soon…
And life won’t be the same…
Without you by my side.

Interesting.

It sounds almost like a jail door slamming.

They will come back...It just sucks to bad, when I think about it, it knocks my breath out of me...Because I can't imagine life (if only for a "short" time) without this person....

lovely poem, if a bit sad and painful!

love and empathy

now that i think about it "lovely" might not be the right word, but *sigh* been replying for too long so deal with it!!!

nirvana means freedom from pain, suffering and the external world.
