Untitled 2.

Nearly seven months ago, you were a boy who stole my heart by the connection we had, it was something I've never felt before, though I knew nothing would last, I went with what my heart wanted, and not what was right. I set myself up time and time again with disappointment, hoping that I'd be treated better.
Little by little my heart grew weaker, and become so bewildered, and angry. As time goes on, I was at a loss for words, I didn't know how to get out of this, I was hurting so bad, yet this connection I had with you seemed so strong, our bodies so in sync with another,seemed as if we didn't even need words. Your actions showed me more than I needed to know, yet I was longing for something more. I needed reassurance.
As days pass,no words, like you didn't even care. How was I suppose to feel? Day pass, and I get more anxious, thoughts of the past start to flood my mind, as if I did something wrong. Then that night came along,I felt betrayed because I felt in my heart we had something special, Deep down I felt you'd never in a million years tear me into to pieces like you did.
Now all the down the drain, I just wanted to leave and get out of this place, I needed to get away,get away from all these demons inside of me, get away from all the aches in my body. I wanted to get away from all these thoughts that were so desperately consuming me, it was taring me apart. I was at my worst and no one seemed to care.
So vodka, was my friend that night, with each drink I took the thoughts in my head started to disappear, and I started to feel like myself again. But as morning rose, I started to like I wasn't in my own body.
Days and weeks pass by, still trying to understand what happened and why. I had so much rage bottled up deep inside. I stayed up countless of nights, tears streaming down my face, hoping somehow I'd get through this.
Not only from what he did, but how I ached for his touch, how I longed to hear his voice, to feel his breath against my skin, and to wake up next to him and feel safe. There is no doubt he took my breath away, with every single touch and every little word he said.
As I lay here tonight, with a smile on my face, I take a deep breath of relief, a thought passed my mind.. " I got through this.

    I lovedddd this poem. This tells such a story of heartache and love. I love how you started this out and you fell it seems in love with this person. I love the imagery you provide. It adds to the poem so very well. I love how you say you made a connection to this person too. I also like the time laspe as well. 7 months is a long time to have someone in your life. I like how you tell the whole story too. Then it all falls apart. Love and even friends are a difficult thing to keep. Sometimes we all need to get away from everything. I agree with you there. Starting over gives us a chance to find oourselves. I love the details of your downfall too. You turned to vodka and though it is very sad I understand whu. People turn to destructive things to numb their pain. I love how there is hope at the end here too. You have overcome again. This is a great write to show anyone can overcome. Xx
