Lost night
before i go silent into the night.
ill first say your name so it leaves empty my body.
ill fist vacate my heart so I don't take with me your name.
ill first lose my mind so I don't suffer your memory.
ill first lose faith so i can finally let go.
ill first lose my courage so i stay where im put.
ill first lose touch so I won't think of yours.
ill first lose my eyes so i can stop seeing you when I close them.
ill first lose myself because without you i don't know who that is.
ill first lose my smile i don't need it and it belonged to you.
... Before i go silent into
the night.

I am very touched by your poem! It's beautiful but carries a lot of pain. I hope it's not your pain.
@enzo360 I'll first lose my eyes so I will stop seeing you when I lose them just hit me in the gut. There's something so raw, so sad, yet so real and authentic behind your words. They just touched and resonsted with me. Sending you hugs, just beautifully and hauntingly expressed, captured a million emotions in a few short lines 🥰
@Amanda84 I meant seeing you when I close them not lose them!
