Loss

I reel from the abyss
Beside me
The gaping void
Where you once were
Pandemonium of
Broken promises assaults
My shredded soul
While stench of
Broken dreams invades
My precious sleep
Under a hundred blankets
I still shiver
On softest pillows
I still ache
Heart pounding
Against the prison
Of my ribs
Perhaps I’ll rip it out
And sacrifice it
To the Aztec Gods
