Broken.

My heart aches
I’m angry and I weep
My head hurts
It’s filled with crazy thoughts…crazy images
Tears are going down my face
My eyes are dark red, swollen
Its one of those nights again

Not hearing your voice
Not feeling you
Holding me, making me better
Making me feel comfortable, safe and cared for.

“I love you”
That’s all I want to hear
“I need you”
Soon I’ll be there
“I miss you”
The words that make me cry more.

When I look at the clock
I see time change
Minute by minute
Hour by hour
Second by second
Day by day
Months after months

Where are you?
Where is that one person I truly love?
Why isn’t he here?
Why isn’t here with me?
Holding me. Kissing me.
…Loving me…

I see couples
One there he’s tickling her and she’s
Laughing; they are happy and in love.
Another in front of me
She’s crying and he is holding her
Saying it will be alright.

As I continue to sit and stare
I wanna cry
Break down in tears.
Why god? Why did you take me away?
Is this a game that you are playing?
Is this a test that I want to fail?
But don’t because I truly love him
Why me? Why him? Why us?

I smile and show the world,
I’m okay.
I laugh and let them think,
I’m happy.
I say that I’m alright when they ask if I’m ok,
When deep inside I’m broken.
