unstopable

the salty rivers i held back now flow rapidly,
their barrior,my will power, has crumbled
and now this river flows,unstopable.
i cling to every smile,every laugh,
every memory of you,
yet they seem to slip through my fingers like smoke,
slowly fading away.
the aching of my quiet heart
like shattering glass
reminds me i'm not dreaming,
but this could never be a dream,
this is a nightmare.
your pale cold face stares back at me,
blankly,
and i yearn for the smile you once wore,
but i know i will never again look apon it.
here,i now stand,barely,i am forced to let you go,
i feel a cold hand on my shoulder,
an icy breadth on my neck,
as i walk away from you,
leaving only a rose...
and a part of myself behind.
