tidal waves of pain washes you cold.
the long letter he left you hung your soul somewhere beyond anyone's reach.
you think: there is nothing worse than this.
it felt like the world cracked itself in half and you fall in the middle of it.
your mind was everywhere,
lingering in the past, getting a grasp of the present, escaping the future.
it made you think about the beautiful story you could've been when he just came storming into your life, taking and taking what he can.
you gladly gave him what you can, you gave and gave until he has more of you than you have of yourself.
you didn't say a word about it, though, because you knew, that is love.
you are supposed to give yourself to someone and be a part of him. there was a night you told me that you are me and i am you.
the day you left me felt like something i've never felt before.
it was like taking me from myself forcibly,
and at the corner of my room i sat,
my whole body was trembling with the memories i have to brush off now that you're gone.
