Stricken
Before you i was content
Unhappy but a smile was easier to fake
You infiltrated my mind
Seduced my body
Engulfed my heart
Freed my soul
After you I’m drowning
The hands i once held
Refuse to reach for me
The arms that once secured me
Refuse to embrace me
The lips that used to whisper i love you
Will no longer breathe life into my body
I’m alone in a somber darkness
Forced to face my demons
Lost and broken
I am completely and utterly stricken
