today

you left me, my love



with no words



soulless, i cannot fight, only breathe



live each day on



put on my shoes



brush my hair



eat my dinner



you left me, my love, with no passion



i wanted to die once, for you, because of you



i was going to plunge my body into the ocean and never come back up



people told me drowning hurts but i never believed them



i feel like water was always meant to be in my lungs

struggling to scream



but now, love, i don't want to die

i cannot die

i have no strength anymore, no will, no conviction



i will live now, a full life



my face already droops and wrinkles at the thought



i want just to be alone    to live alone     to smoke alone



i want just to be asleep



you left me, love, with nothing



no memories

no hopes



no pain but the pain of emptiness

i cannot cry
