a poem I wrote about grieving someone who is still alive:
Love you from a distance:
When my conscience fell victim to a mental war
I collapsed deciding which was easiest
To accept I’d drawn life’s shortest straw
Or keep pretending like you didn’t exist
In a world where your words taunted me…
‘find fulfilment once I leave’
I felt you left me with no other choice
I was lost in a void so deep you wouldn’t believe
Its walls echoed the curative sound of your voice
Those days I’d tread carefully on broken glass
For one second too long in a thought of you
Would drive my mind to depths even hell fails to surpass
Where my subconscious would wait for you to arrive
Grief is love with nowhere to go
How could I have missed this?
I think my grief is over now that I don’t have to love you from a distance
