Numb with Pain


People often ask me “ How are you?”

I’m going to say; well actually, I’m not very well at all, thank you. I’m feeling a bit distressed and lonely. Pissed off at the world. Envious of people and their perfect little lives. And then I’ll tell them about how I started my first job and met loads of new people and how I’m trying hard to pick myself up but that I’m now at a loss about what else to do.

Then I’ll tell them how it pisses me off when everyone says time is a healer when at the same time they also say absence makes the heart go fonder, which really confuses me, because that means that the longer she’s gone the more I want her.

I’ll tell them that nothing is healing at all and that every morning I wake up to my empty life it feels like salt is being rubbed into those unhealing wounds.

And then I’ll tell them about how much I miss my love and about how worthless my life seems without her and I’ll explain how I feel like I’m just waiting for my world to end…..

Nostalgia

Mystified by the way we met,
the spell was cast, the
night was magical & perfect.
Entrapped in its silent story…
a new chapter began,
we walked hand in hand,
a sparkle in our eye…
the star spangled sky,
smiled at our innocence,
showered us with blissful
freedom…to do as we
pleased.
a smile lived, it grew
danced and engulfed
us in an embrace.

And we let it carry us away..
far off to another land..
our very own fantasy,
a grin on our face!
Hope lingered in our eye
shadows of the world,
fleeted across,
but only for a second,
did we see them pass.
For very involved in
a dream were we,
laughing, singing a far
Off ecstasy…
