A Poem by nigrum homonculus
"

er...this is just feelings on paper. nothing too poetic. this is my third ex amy. the one i can safely say i learned the most about myself from.

"

Loving you had its consequences.

It left me lobotomized.

My natural capacity to cope with life was robbed.

My ears bleeding from your sharp words.

A relationshit left to rot.

But to call it quits and ask me to forgive?

I did so with vacancy so blatant

And smiles so hollow.

I floated inches of the ground walking to your house that night.

I stepped outside myself when stepping inside your bedroom.

I was in my purest form.

Weightless, soulless, no thermal signature.

Yet for some reason

You felt some sort of warmth within me.

Your head continued to rest on my chest

Yet you heard no heartbeat.

You continued to look in my eyes

Even though the features were absent.

Is that hope?

Or naivety.
