living death

Mood: miserable
i lay in bed,
wrapped in darkness;
the air so hot,
my heart so cold.
i take a breath,
let it out.
i am numbed
by the ache inside.
close my eyes and
think of you;
think of memories past,
those long gone,
ones that haunt.
i can still feel
arms around me,
your kiss on my cheek,
fingers interlocked
with mine.
i wake with
you in my head,
your name on my lips.
i wonder why
i was the one
left over.
day by day,
seconds tick by,
and minutes more,
till an hour it makes.
everything is agony.
the pain eats away.
how
can a half-gnawed heart
still beat?
can a candle
without the flame
still shine?
can i?
i thought it would last.
but it turns out,
i was wrong.
i guess
nothing is ever eternal.
so on i go,
chunks of coal
without sparks,
living a death.
it hurts to the point
where i can't
feel it.
and i doomed
to be alive?
