Three Weeks

Three long weeks of feeling broken
Of hiding emotions with words unspoken
Dealing with this pain all by myself
Suffering through loneliness with no one else.
The many tears that are racing down my cheeks
Have been a part of me for the past three weeks.
The burning pain I feel inside my heart
Has been tearing my entire world apart.

Three long weeks of dark gray skies
Of letting go and tough goodbyes
Dealing with the problems that started it all
Suffering with the symptoms leading to my fall.
The many questions floating inside my mind
Have all these answers that seem impossible to find.
The past three weeks have been a long discovery
Of the person who seems like the brand new me.

Three long weeks of slowly healing
Of trying to get rid of this awful feeling
Dealing with long nights of very little sleep
Suffering with a hole in my heart that's very deep.
The thought of holding onto this heavy load
Has brought me down another winding road.
For the past three weeks I've searched for the end
So I can get out and allow myself to mend.

Hello there, everyone. This poem took me a while to write, haha. I've been working on it for the past two days or so. Usually poems come out of me faster, but this one didn't.

Why three weeks, you may ask? Because it's been three weeks since I went through that painful breakup.

This poem is about how I've felt during the time since the breakup. I'm doing a lot better than before, gratefully. I thought I just had to let it all out.
