im finding it hard to breath,
as the world around me turns breathlessly still and silent
and my head gets its dizziest yet
and my eyes are welling but tears do not fall,
I got to be strong.
my heart is aching, the kind of ache where you have to
hold a hand to your chest,
and press
against a wall for support
that hurts so bad, you have to fall to your knees
but you stand, stubborn to the pain that wants you
down on all four paws
its tiring. but once it subsides..
i take a breathe.
the cold air soothing to the coldness i feel
a tear drops. only one is allowed to escape its prison in my eye
and everythings alright
the world becomes alive again,
i can feel the wind hitting my skin
laying back, gently hugging my arms
thinking of her..
Yes, everything is Perfect

I like it. I'm used to reading poems with a lot of rhyme, and usually write like that, so it's refreshing to see something different. Thanks for sharing <3 -
I love how you capture the unsure, almost terrifying feeling of love and heartbreak, especially how its exemplified in the GLBT community. Beautiful poem.
