Vanish

I can’t escape… Everything reminds me.
 Blessed be my disappearance. Until
 The panic chills me awake. I can not see.
 I cannot breathe when you are near.

Swallow a bitter taste of sweetness
 That lingers in the morning shadows,
 Slicing through the delicate layers
 Of One trying to live on love alone.

The pain comes,
 The pain goes.
 Eros fed it to my soul, I starved
 I started over.
