Empty When You Left

Hair matted to my face,

I walk slowly down the street

Soaked to the bone I am

Clothes pasted to my body,

Mocking every motion

Rain flows like rivers,

Over the curves of my body

A warm sensation embraces me

I wipe the rain from my eyes

Thunder claps loudly above

Turning up my drive way

Unlock and push open the door

Pull off my clothes, dripping

Drag my feet over the carpet

Leaving a trail behind me

Slump down on to my bed

Clutching a pillow close

Tears steam down my face

The pain is deep and so strong

Leaning my head against the wall

All I can feel is the emptiness

Complete and utter emptiness

Author's Notes/Comments: 

I've had a  serious case of writers block so this is the first poem I've completed in a while. I'm not to pleased... but I gotta write something. Any ways.. this is what I think it would feel like if someone broke up with me.. for I've been fortunate when it comes to that.. and never been broken up with, rather I've always been the one doing the breakin up.
