Lost Poem by geraldine roux

I am losing you
I can feel it in my soul
I can feel it in my heart
I will never know how it feels
To hold you close to my body
I hold you close to my essence
Even when you are far away

I am feeling lost now
I don’t know what to do
It feels like I’m standing on a cliff
No turning back to days gone by
I am missing you
But I may not
I have no right to feel like this
Not after everything is said and done

I have no purpose here
The world is shaking
And my house of cards is tumbling down
I am floating outside my body
Looking down at my life
Is it wrong to want it all?
Is it wrong to love you so?
Is it wrong to need you?
To want you?
Count my sins and line them up
For I cannot help myself
Even now sitting here
I know it’s not allowed
I know it’s out of my grasp
But still I wish it was mine
I am stuck on a one way train
And the station has passed
Where you were waiting for me
Now I can’t get off
Because then I’ll be more lost
I can only say one thing to you
I’m sorry, so sorry
