This was going to be our summer.
Just me and you...
It lay in ruins
before we can drive away
I'm driving you away
I'll never get these days alone back
and neither will you.
They're up for the taking,
and be inscribed
with someone else name,
and another memory for them is made.
Everyday passing us by
is another memory lost.
And sometimes that feels like losing you.
Maybe that's what killing me.
Your voice still fills the halls
of this empty home
Your cup still sits
e m p t y
next to the kitchen sink
Your belt and shirt
are still laying on my bedroom floor
Your impressions on my bedsheets
are still
w a r m
And so are my hands
from one memory
to the next
...this is our lost summer...

ALL HIS FACES ARE EXACTLY ALIKE!
Why must you insist on shoving my head under the water when I'm already drowning? Leaving me in this puddle of thought, right before I retreat to my bed...I won't sleep...It's my own fault, I suppose, reading such wonderful poetry before bedtime :-D...It's good stuff. I love it, I love you...I miss you, fiercely. -
:sigh: such emotion. crying isn't an ability i have at the current moment, only sadness sweeps over my mind. i know not what's happpened, but it seems tramuatizing (sp). see ya around Kala.

My God, I think I'm going to cry. I'm not supposed to react like that... it's just poetry. But I can see everything you're saying, and I have an experience to match the vision each time. Maybe that's whats killing me. Yea. -Adrian
