Somebody's Nothing

by Lofallenve   Oct 28, 2011


If this is where we are,
Falling asleep as languid lovers,
To only wake as diminutive friends,
Having my body borrowed for the night,
Being just the replacement for the
Empty void that haunts your bed.
With you holding my hand tight,
Because you have no other to hold.
The only reason being held by you
Is because you don't want to be alone.
Then I don't want to be here,
In this place where you are
Lying here with you,
With whispers of sweet nothings,
To perfume the room,
Where the silent sound of my
Breaking heart echoes loud.
Where you have me here as your nothing,
But I stayed because you are my everything.

    This this poem is truly heartbreaking, I think this one is my favorite poem of yours, It really stirred my emotions especially how you ended it, a poem that can do that is a true masterpiece.

    one of my favorite parts in this poem is:

    Where the silent sound of my
    Breaking heart echoes loud.

    that line is truly artistic in so many ways I cant even put it into words.

    you deserve a lover that wants you like you want them

    When i read the title, I didn't know what to expect but you definitely delivered the message well, It must be in a hard spot to just be there because they want you there just cux they dont want to be alone... I get how that feels too, and you penned nicely

    good work on this piece.

    Not sure if its just because i'm literally in the same exact position as you are in this but i really like this poem and is easily relatable. This is typical friends with benefits with only one person on board. the other person fools him or herself to believe its a step closer to what they had
