Our dreams
lay at my feet
Like the
shattered windows of a home
After it’s
been hit by a tornado
Your voice
in my head
And your
heart in my prayers
All I wanted
to say is I’m sorry
But nothing
comes out
The toxic pain
of our unfinished fairytale
Follows me
like a shadow without a purpose
I ask
myself how I got here
How a
hopeful ‘we’ changed so quickly to
Nothing but
a lonely you
And a
broken me
I’m sorry
Day dreams
haunt my every thought
And the
faint, familiar taste of depression
Lays itself
on my every tear
I remember
the smell of your skin
And the
touch of your hands
I know the
safety of your arms
And the
comfort of your warmth
Stories are
written in the palms of the heavens
And their
execution tied to every grain of the Earth
Just like
the sea has an end we don’t know
And the
trees dance to a tune we can’t hear
I realized
our story needs its own time to unfold
It needs
time to be stitched together, time for clarity
I scraped
away at my skin
With broken
fingernails in the hope
That I
could somehow remove your touch
From my
every inch of being
To do what’s
right and to
End what is not yet written
Is a pain I don't wish on my worst enemy
To love and
know loss
To loose
and to know hope
To hope and
to know pain
To hurt and
to know its presence
To feel and
to know its worth
To value
and to prepare for the worst
To never be
prepared to have your heart broken
And to
finally… After all that…. Break
Now I know
what a broken soul feels like
Now I know
how I wish for just, a broken heart
My love, I
am so terribly sorry
May life
always find you in good health
And may
success never stop knocking on your door
When love
fails you, like I have
And when
your heart breaks, like I have done to you
May you
know it’s not always bad
May you know that sometimes,
It comes from a good place
May you
heal with the strength of a thousand prayers
If a day
should come, if I should be so lucky
Where the
universe thinks I am made for you
And you for
me
I hope our
love finds its place in the world
And if not,
if this is our end
I hope you
find a love so whole
And so
terribly fulfilling
That you
never have to remember my face
Or my touch, with pain
That you
look back with joy
And you’re
okay
I wish for you, every happiness
Every dream to come true
Every whisper to be heard
And every tear to be loved away
I love you
I’m sorry
Dilz
