They say it Passes


They say it Passes

Sitting alone with lingering thoughts keeping me company
and a restless feeling that plagues my core.
Springing alive only to torture me
drowning my heart in its fluid
ringing in my ears
till I’m deaf with its sound
and leaves me numb with nothing but
my thoughts and this cursed feeling.
I try to drown it out, plugging tunes in my eardrums.
Getting lost in the melodies but somehow
it finds its way back into my soul.
I try blinding my eyes to its presence
and yet when I wake, it's all that I can see.
All that I have to face.
They say it passes.
Like the sun slipping into the night
Like the cold breeze slipping across my cheeks.
But how can one pass when it lingers in me?
Attaching onto my heart
like a parasite, yet, it sucks toxins back into my body
instead of out.
They say it passes,
but it seems
like it's a part of me now.

This Poems Story

Losing someone close to you takes a toll on your mind and body. Weighing you down till your heart can no longer rise. I\'ve talked to people and all the responses are the same, \"It will get better, It will pass.\" But somehow, it feels like this pain, this sadness, won\'t. Because it has made a home out of my heart.
