THE BREAKUP

SHANA E.

I shiver when I hear you, whispering sweet nothings in my ear For I know if I listen to you I’ll feel nothing but sadness, even fear Despair, darkness, and never ending need Envelope me in nothingness but an emptiness that will feed More time wasted, more days passed, more tears I have yet to shed I know I can do better, I told my loved ones this, I said I would do better this time but what if I can’t do it, what if I hide I can’t let this happen, I can’t listen to your lies The day has come for the hard work that must be done I know that today must be my first day one My soul, my spirit, my vacant heart that yearns For fulfillment, love, kindness the hope inside still burns Deep inside of me, to finally open my eyes and see It’s time I pick myself up first, it’s time I finally start loving ‘me
