I take a cold shower just to remind me I'm alive.
To remind me that as much as I wish this was a dream, it isn't.
I'm drowning in memories as tears rush down my face.
I can't relive those moments.
No!
No!
No!
I'll just fall in love with you all over again.
I was head over heels for you, but It looks like I tripped.
I guess it was more than that...It seems as if i took a dive off of a cliff.
You see, but it was you who pushed me.
I'm once again reminded this isn't a dream.
My arms are empty.
I don't have your strong arms wrapped around me or smell the familiar scent of your morning coffee and axe.
I slide to the floor and sob. Sob because I don't know what else I can do.
This world is a harsh place. It doesn't matter how strong you are. Life will beat you down to your knees until you are wheezing, pleading to just escape.
