Prove To Me

The words you whisper,
They taste so sweet-
Prove to me
That they have meaning

I have proof of the winds
As they carry me away,
And proof of your laughter
As it did the same

Prove to me
Your smile is true-
The smile I loved
When I thought I loved you

I have proof of the sun
on my rosy skin,
And proof of the flowers
As the lilac fragrance sinks in

Prove to me
I travel further than your thoughts,
To enter your life
That you fight to keep locked

I have proof of the scars
Carved from painful memories,
And proof of my heart
Beating unwished life
Through my vein’s red seas

Prove to me
that I meant something to you,
That time was not wasted
And what we had was true

I have proof of your absence
In my blood-shot eyes
And tears are proof enough
That your love was just a disguise

I have no proof of my smile
In photos of you,
I burned the pictures
And our memories, too

Love is lost
You have no proof
What I thought was love
Turned into you
And you proved me wrong

She wants to die. She wants to disappear, to be remembered no more. She wants so terribly to be forgotten, all her mistakes, all her failures, everything. Her name to be wiped free from all record of existence. Because is it really existing when you’ve got nothing to show for your life?

love this poem! 5/5 :)
