My Enigma

By Gothchic

Another night creeps by slowly
Its bitter cold biting on my flesh
As a black blanket covers the bright skies..
And my mind begins to wander

I hate the day for it reminds me of your bright smile
The night more as it torments my tortured soul
I wish you were here with me this moment
I wish you were here this night

My dreams of you were my best moments
But now the very dreams are my nightmares
They won't leave me alone
Pleasing in my pain and sorrow

I stayed up to watch you sleeping
But that is taken over by the weeping
I stay up and you are the reason still
But the reason drives blades through my heart

The touch of your hand brought my soul to life
As those electric shocks ran through my body
Its the same electric shocks that kill me this night
Taking away the very last part of me

Winter I loved as I lay next to you
And although the snow still falls I feel nothing...
Lost in nothingness, an infinite black hole
The reality of me without you

I was...I lived  
Now I am.. that which lived then
A shadow, a ghost, a remembrance
Of the moments I once knew..

    This was a very relatable piece for me. Open ended to the degree which makes it easy to identify with. I thoroughly enjoyed the word choice throughout, which brings me to the liking of the general composition. Good read!
