No Title Poem by Thomas dockery

alone in the darkness covered in sweat
I raise my head to check the time
sitting up I start to rub my eyes
in blue the clock reads half past nine

looking at the other side of the bed
an empty pillow is all that remains
When did these nights grow lonely
I never noticed how much it rains

face in my hands I feel a bearded frown
you loved my smooth face when we kissed
Cant make myself look in a mirror again
last time.. I met the image with a fist

screaming in silence I cry out loud
I don't want to survive another day
slowly breaking, my heart fades away
fall to the floor wishing it a grave

I beg for one more night to love you
holding my knees to my chest I pray
Memories of holding you in my arms
How can I live without you another day
