Redundancy is all You Know when You Always Feel the Same

Redundancy is all You Know when You Always Feel the Same

A Poem by Kahtia Howard

Holy f*****g hell it's impossible to sleep
without the wrestling of our feet
fighting to keep each other warm
beneath the top layer of our sheets

I hate this tiny bed
the empty space next to my head
begging for you constantly
my heart just sinks like lead

You said you needed space
and I'm trying my very best
but my fingertips keep searching for you jawline to trace
every night they fall defeated
can't lay my troubled mind to rest

I hate this f*****g battle
I know it'll never cease
everyone says that time will heal
but time won't fix disease

I know that tomorrow's another day
but I don't feel I will be okay
because I always seem to feel the same
anxiously pained by my bleeding brain
