Emptiness

Your love was like
a catalyst inside
my little head
now I’m left dead.
Wishing upon
a star that’s now gone
I wished for all
of the memories of you to dissolve
into nothingness.
Twenty years of exploration
into my soul and yours,
now mine is ancient.
Exploring in your soul,
exploring in mine
you just dined
and ate mine.
So I look back at your wretched soul
and anger surfaces,
you never liked me,
you just used me.
Wretched souls
on a road,
wishing for the memories to go,
and in a time that has past too fast,
now I’m just going past.
Detached, unconscious
I look outside and outside looks back at me,
Now look at me,
I’m just a being,
in my nightgown
hands on face,
looking outside like he’ll come back.
He never liked me
but he sure as anything loved to use me.

A new song by one of my favorite bands/musicians Florence and the Machine inspired me to write this piece because of the sound of the music mostly.
