andrea upon remembering adam~~

i let myself go today
not on purpose-it's true
but i found myself alone & stricken
with a feeling of desperation
hanging off the edge of the world, i was
with no one to lend me a hand
sobs overtook my body
i drenched my pillow &
swallowed the salty lump of bitterness
that had formed in my throat
sprouted from confusion & loss
i did not stop until my body was drained
of all energy & motivation to move
i finally drifted back into reality
discovering myself sprawled in
a soggy bed of salty tears
bathed in darkness, still alone &
suffering from the same vulnerabilities
that tripped me & made me fall into
my pit of self pity in the first place
