Blinded

I stop with a halt.

It’s hard to deal with gazillion thoughts

Running through my head

But,

My heart inevitably keeps on pondering.

The details remain ruined

I was anxious

I wanted it to end.

I briskly let my lid close

But, across the darkly dim room

I could still see your ashen face

I struggle to keep my eyes closed

Steady as I wanted to be

Yet, I could still see you

I could still hear the thumping of your heart.

My own tried to mimic the sound

My lashes moist with tears,

I just couldn’t.

It’s far harder than I ever imagined.

My soul drank with dizziness,

Not aware of you could hands

Against my bare nakedness

My eyes bolt open

But, it didn’t take long.

I blink, and then you’re gone.

I embraced myself

I let the chill of loneliness

Cut my soul to pieces.

It’s blurry. I wasn’t able to see clearly ahead.

It’s hard to look for the light

when I don’t have you in my heart.
