surrealism of a listless night
from the time i woke to the instant
my eyes closed and i knew then
they would never again see you
or blink at the first sign of
a s t i l l morning
the moment i glanced towards the floor
and you raged with silent intensity
as my shoulders trembled in what was
soon to be an admittance of defeat
a subtle, penetrating fear fills me now
throw your look of disgust in the corner
atop the others i've been given, as
i don't want to forget the way you've made me feel
until i've prepared my swift, violent withdrawal
from life lost to an intense fallacy
far beyond words that slip through a
broken sunset weeping stars that fall
landing quietly in moonlit pools
finding their home amidst cliched broken hearts
and how we could have loved
