The memories playing like movies in my head
Where you touched my skin
You warmth lingers hot on my skin
You laugh still plays in my head
When your hand brushed mine
When your eyes fell upon time after time
When you smiled at me
My heart melted
But now everytime I see you
My heart breaks more and more
But I put on my mask
And fix my smile
I get ready for the day
Taking it on with a see through mask
But only you cant see through it
My fake gleaming eyes staring at you
Everytime I laugh
Thats me dying a little more
Everytime I say hi
Thats me crying a little more
After I pull myself together
I stretch the seams
But then I loose all control
How could you have left me
So many unanswered questions
Left lingering in my mind
How do you get the happy ending
While I am stuck here dying each day
How do you get to be happy
While I am stuck in this bleak darkness
How do you get to live peacefully
While I am slowly dying
The memories are playing like movies
The smile etched in my mind
The pain still there
So many unanswered questions
have you ever been like this before

this is so clearly full of hurt it almost made me want to cry. i've been in the same situation...i know how bad it hurts to have someone just leave you and than have to see them happy all the time. the only good news is that it evenutally gets easier. this is a really great poem.
