how it feels

The pain takes your appetite,

you stop eating.

The pain keeps you up each night,

you stop sleeping.

The pain leaves memories,

you stop smiling.

The pain overcomes you,

you stop seeing,

close your eyes and start dreaming.

The pain brings nightmares,

only to remind you he doesnt care.

So you let it get ahold of you,

like being choked.

You can't breathe, your stomach clenches.

You stop using your lungs,

before you know it, your heart is no longer beating.

All because he promised you something,

and failed to keep it
