Going Away
Moving away from a loved one is painful.

The day that I went away
My eyes of grey
Clouded up like a storm
And by god, it rained
My throat forced out
A jumbled ball of words
Against my will
Choked sobs spelled out
“Please, lord let me stay
I can’t stand being away”
Gentle arms cut and seared my waist
A dull ache
I knew soon they’d be taken away
Rose petal lips catching each drop whisper
“It'll be be okay”
The heartbeat I memorized
Plays over and over in my head
Beats to the thud of my steps
That burn a hole in the ground
The farther that I walk
My heartbeat, out of sync
Crushes and rushes at my chest
Trying to escape
The ground is a storm drain
I looked to the sky,
and god,
it rained.
The next day the overcast sky
Looked down on me
Threatening a downpour,
The air had cooled without his warmth
The heavy clouds held back their tears
As I looked on with empty eyes
Neither the sky nor i can stand goodbyes
The day afterwards
My skin had seemed to dry
