BLINDED BY HER. . . (L.R.)
#WritcoPoemPrompt54
I feel my heart is wrenching and ask myself is it all worth it?
The pain... the crying... the anguish...

How she left me but I still chase after her.
When will I realize... she only stayed because she thought I was another her?

I always looked up to her... following her example,
but that led me to my current place of despair.

When I stare myself down in the shattered mirror... but see I'm the only one shattered,
my pieces lost in the darkness of nothingness.

I try so hard to cover my red eyes... burning with my never ending tears,
still drowning in their deep sadness.

Why did I never realize before... that she didn't want the real me,
maybe I did but still can't let her go.

I hear her voice calling my name... ringing in my head constantly,
even though she will never return to use her accepting voice...
