You loved so much you swear you heard
the flesh of your heart rip with each breath
of goodbye on their lips.
You saw imprinted within your eyelids
their name blazing across fiery synapses
of liquid gold blood.
You felt the dark dead cells in your pores
die once more into stone particles
as a love left your soul.
You loved so much that once they went
sleeping was a sweeter way to continue living
than being awake.
