Favorite Quote:
"The duty of youth is to challenge corruption." - Kurt Cobain


Your trembling fingers traced
the curve of my back
and I shivered.

Your smile…
Tore its way into me
and gave me the courage
to lean in and kiss you.

It's sad to think,

I haven't smelled your sheets
in over three weeks
months, years.

And it's my fault.
Because I pushed you away.
And let myself fall back down.
Into the darkness.

The feeling of losing someone you love is painful. Especially if you were involved in an intimate relationship. This poem is about exactly that.
