Description
i keep telling myselfit's better this way
to feel this pain now
instead of needing to
die later
i lost myself again
in those sleepless
nights with you
drug induced dreams
melancholy like
last time
there are bones
under my skin and
they cry out to
be touched by
metal or feathers
or something soft
but there's nothing left
of me to love
i gave it all to you

Your word choice is arresting; it conveys emotion in a very powerful way.

Beautifully written. I like the spareness, very appropriate to the content. And that last stanza is a three-line tragedy.
