She left my heart wounded and torn Did the mother of my firstborn Time, traversed like many years Still, I feel her presence near. Sucking at the chasm she left in my heart As though happily dining out, al a carte Vampirish, her memory draining my soul Nothing left, everything else she stole. Her aura resides, never leaves my thoughts At work, at play, everywhere, I'm distraught Life slowly leaving my body, I feel faint And gasp for air, resigned to my fate. Her presence is omnipresence, her perfume Fill my senses, causes me much gloom Listening fervently for her physical body Oh, why, did she treat me so shoddy? I sit in the room, dust motes dance a jig As if they'd just been shaken from a twig As I looked around the room I guess I saw In mind's eye the thrusting jut of your jaw. A hint of her face can be silently found It's like a balm to my innermost wounds Oh, God, I miss her so very, very much What can I use that will give me a crutch? What I can't understand, oh, not at all Just thinking about it I want to bawl The way she left with no thought in mind Why would she be so petty and unkind? As I sit here and read her note once again Even though now I know where she has been The words grab my throat and I feel bile Hi hon, mother and I went shopping for awhile. To mimic is a form of praise unless |
