#28 of Poetry

A poem about what it feels like to be rejected by someone you love very much.

_Rejection_

Cast aside   
Blood flows free   
 From the wound   
Deep, ingrained,   
Controlling   
 Containing Love   
Not yet shared   
 But flowing fast   
 Sticky and red   
 Between my fingers   
 Sickly-sweet scent   
 So fresh   
 Hilt is still present   
 Twist and turn   
Inside my heart.

Pain pumps through   
My body   
Blood rushes my ears   
Thump-thump Thump-thump   
 In my head   
 Losing control   
 Emotions welling over   
 Over to sickness   
 Hurl my insecurity   
 Proceed to grief   
 Anger, obsession, love   
What to believe?

The onrush of feeling   
 Can't control myself   
 Lost my sense of sight   
 But not my eyes   
 I see you in my dreams   
 My sleeping dreams   
 My waking dreams   
 My dreams both   
 Chosen, unchosen   
 You compliment those dreams   
 You haunt those nightmares   
Ghost inside my head.

I feel your touch   
Feeling me   
Breaking me to pieces   
Fragments splattered in blood   
Drinking up my love   
You refuse to partake   
Refuse to bathe   
No nourishment for me.

Fragments of my mind   
 Pierce my soul   
 Driving me insane   
 Into an early grave   
Cemetery without you   
By my side never   
Feel my breath   
Breathe my stench   
 It raids your inner core   
 Mine is dust   
 Please scrape me up   
You toss me aside.

My heart pounds with blood   
 Filled with love   
 I've lost myself   
 For you, but   
 You digress   
 I distress   
 My own hell it seems   
 Is inside of me   
My own hell is me.

You cast me aside   
Stab my heart   
 Shatter my mind   
Spill my blood   
Wound me beyond compare   
 Pierce my soul   
 Break my body   
 Crush my hopes   
 Destroy my dreams   
 Abandon me to   
 My consuming emotions   
 Yet...   
 I obsess you   
 I adore you   
I need you   
 Feel you, want you   
 Breathe you, crave you   
 Bleed for you   
 Cry for you   
Dream for you   
Die for you   
 Because I think that   
 I will still, always,   
Love You.
