Love

Laying here 

Lighting up another cigarette

Thinking it might burn him away

Trust me

I tried the long

And arduous day

Filled with productive bits

In the end sunken

With thoughts of him

Drowning my mind

In a wash of regret

Thinking

I should not have let him

Go

But what could i have done

What can anyone do

So now the laying

The brooding

And a small pile of

Burnt out cigarettes

Embodying that little monster

Grief

But they don't 

And doesn't

Burn him out

Love is powerful

They say

And they are right

But when it sticks too deep

And claws through the heaps

Of nothingness

And becomes the only thing

Then becomes nothing

It doesn't feel romantic at all

The smoke drifts up up up

All the way

Whispering his

Name

Damn you

You beastly curse

Love

I shall escape you

I will escape you

If i don't

I'll die
