Between
With every tune that you hum, you hear them in between the lyrics. With every painting you admire, you see them in between the brush strokes. Between the sunrise and the sunset, you are reminded of the warmth your bodies created. Between the moon and the stars, you are reminded of the words exchanged until…

Revivir
Entumida del dolor, no supe qué hacer en ese momento. Llorando del coraje que ya no aguantaba dentro de mi. La decepción de tus palabras fue un cuchillo a mi corazón. Tus acciones enganchado en mi mente recordando que al fin del día, fui nada para ti. Que la primera oportunidad que tuviste, me olvidaste.…

Strangers
High levels of dopamine released through your body as their hand caresses your face. Chemicals reacting in a euphoric bliss. Sleepless nights, not being able to eat, so “in love.” They are the first thing you think of when you wake up and the last thing when you lay your head at night. Nothing else…

Imprisoned
As the sun rises, sitting at the dining room table, your home filled with silence. The silence of everyone still sleeping. Your children dreaming of the days to come, of their utmost desires. You take that first sip of coffee, the first one that always warms up your body. Reminiscing of every word you said…

Gone
Standing at the edge of the bridge. Watching the lights as every car speeds by under their feet. Thinking if they jumped, that even for a second they would be flying free. Escaping all that is broken and hurting them. Only if the handful of pills she chased down with whiskey will make all her…

Storm
A lighting of pain across your chest, trying to regulate your breath. Dilated pupils and sweaty palms. Every second you feel your body withering down. Fog rolling in, mind shutting down. Searching for a focal point, hoping to gain control again. Quieting the voice in your head telling you, you are in danger. Panting, repeating…

Released
Knees on the floor as the water runs down your face. Covering the tears you shed. You kneel there drowning out the sounds of the world. Eyes closed, grounding yourself. Controlled breaths, emptying your mind. But, your mind chooses to overthink every moment, every word. You can’t resist but think about what life is going…

Layers
Walking through a door, a door to a dark filled room. With every step you take, you’re body gets heavier. The layers of emotions piled on one after another. Looking around only to find yourself all alone. With every blink of an eye you hope to make sense of where you are at. Of what…

Desire
“Happily ever after” they say. “I love you, like I’ve never loved before” they claim. They desire you from head to toe. Missing you as the hours roll by. Thoughts of you come across their minds as they go about their routine. They make your heart flutter and your body shiver. You dream of a…

Missing
Broken hearted, missing a piece you feel you can never get back. Wandering mind with empty thoughts. Every breath weighs heavier on your chest. The sorrows engraved into your bones. Counting the seconds hoping time can go by faster. Wondering if they miss you, if they think of you. If you even meant anything to…
