she's
a liar and
a foolish woman
​too full of herself or
​frightened to
admit
​she's lost without you
​
the
sun is gone
​blue skies have faded and
clouds hover above
​her
​
sunrays
​only reflect upon lovers
​and she suffers at each glimpse of
​their togetherness
​
loneliness
​has entombed her
​she's chilly whether indoors or out
​day and night even when temperatures
​reach record breaking
​she
​is
​f r e e z i n g
​
her
​tears fall like
​rainfall whenever she
​encounters lingering scent of you
​and her spent in the bedroom, bathroom, living room
​in
​every
​single
​room
christened
​in the name of a
​soul deep love
​and like a shrine she enters each
​kneeling, inhaling and worshiping EVERY damn image
​that daily ritual brings
​and
​when
​compelled to step
​outside amongst scrutinizing eyes
​she
​prances in her
​prefabricated glow trying
​to convince those
​around her
​she
​hasn't
​missed
​a
​step
​without
​you
​
all
​awhile
​inside
​she's tripping
​and
​crying out in
​agony
​
since you
the
​sun's
​been
​gone
​
and
​she's cold
​soul
​cold
