My Mind Is With You

[Dagless]

A couple of Sundays back I was feeling really lost, did some crying and wrote this. It doesn't rhyme, it was just thoughts and feelings written down really. I wasn't going to post it but reading it today I though I really does get accross how I was feeling that day, so here it is.

 

My mind is with you

But my body longs to hold you

Another night of crying holding your things

 

Your smell is still there

That’s the closest I can get

It feels like losing you again

 

It’s the loneliness that’s killing me

This world is so empty without you

It’s just not the same

 

This was not how it was suppose to end

We were going to be happy

That’s all we ever wanted

 

It’s like I’ve been hollowed out

Nothing left but a mind that does nothing

but think about you

And a body that doesn’t understand

That you’re gone.

Very beautiful.

I'm glad you posted it.

 

The last paragraph especially "got to me".

Yeah, that part about "A body that doesn't understand that you're gone" really tugs at me.

 

And great you posted it. I love free verse poems, and so not having to rhyme is often freeing! Good job.
