IN THREE WORDS

Core temperature rises

Words are missing

Face heats ups

Tears are flowing

Falling on knees

Hands covering eyes

On the floor

I am crying

Screaming my pain

Tear soaked shirt

Makeup is ruined

Feeling so small

Alone in darkness

Puddle of tears

Eyes are closed

Heartbeat is faster

Gasping for air

Catching my breath

Meditating on love

Wishing you here

Opening my eyes

Looking at reflection

Seeing lost love

Love lost reflection

Stroking warm face

Smiling once more

Reflection smiles back

Wiping away tears

Words still lost

Lost and unfound

Alone without you

Tears flow again

Why so sad

Sadness encases me

I am afraid

Afraid of me

Who am I

I don’t know

Eyes bloodshot red

Who are you

This isn’t me

Close my eyes

Darkness, pain, heat

Eyes open wide

Tears ran dry

Cries cease inside

Hating seeing you

Seeing sadness inside

Wishing to see

A beautiful me

Revive my beautiful

Come back, please

Hands are shaking

Cold, clammy, wet

Griping them tight

Fists of anger

Fists on face

Pain all over

Reflection has left

I am gone
