76. X - Xerosis (Abnormal dryness)

She was gone
It had been 5 years and 6months now
I was the one to end that story
I was the one to push the both of us into this emotional forest
Initially I cried, cried till my eyes felt sore
I threw all my Tees she once wore
People, places and memories
Everything was linked to her
And her departure was a tumultuous stir
I felt a heaviness in my chest
The agony kept aggrevating
This was a dark forest
It was like an abyss,
once filled with her love,
her fragrance,
the smell of her hair,
Her sweet whispers,
Her affection, in the way she hugged me
There was so much life,
But now exists only the forest
With a resonance of all this, diluting in the sounds of the cyclonic winds
With time I realize,
I don't cry anymore
I have been shaken deeply​ from within
But it's not dampening my core
Rather I'm going dry
What once seemed like an abyss of hundred possibilities
Today just seems like a dark void
I could feel my chest peeling off its skin
Yet I don't bleed
Everytime I passed by a memory, a brick in the wall powdered, but not a tear was shed
I had filled myself with so much smoke
There was no place for an ounce of moistness
I started desserting my feelings and choking them up
Wait I didn't feel anymore...,
