Blank State

I love waking up
because there are a few
quiet, blissful moments 
where my mind is blank
and I'm still in this
state of mind where it's
pure ecstasy.
Then reality sets in
and it's just another day.
It would be much easier
to get out of my bed 
in the morning
if I got to roll over
to your face
and kiss the sleepiness
from your lips and watch
your eyelids slowly flutter open.
You'd smile 
because you knew.
And there was 
plain silence between us
but that's okay,
because we didn't need to say
a single word.

Suffered, suffering, suffer.

When you left
so did a part of me.
I never realized 
how invested I was in you.
You took a part of me
that no one could ever
give back.
And I have suffered.
I am suffering.
I will suffer.
