Cold, Old and Brittle ...

[*Cosmic Mist*]

You're so cold, old and brittle -
I see you and i fear you're breaking in two,
but there's nothing i can do
to stop you falling,
falling,
and falling...
...falling into that deep pit of dispair
that i once shared alone with you -
I just want to see you onemore time,
and talk the way we once did...
... but you're cold, old and alone now -
you're brittle, breaking in two...
...and i miss you, i miss you SO much...
... i miss you so much i cannot even scream,
for running up my street, it's like everything's a dream,
and everything that could be wrong
is,
including you...
...but you're cold, old and fucked up now -
lost deeper than ever i fell,
lost in this pit, that you've dug for yourself,
and there's no one left who can help...
So now you're cold, old, and brittle...
so fragile...
and beautiful...
secretly breaking in two...

Cosmic Mist this is by far one of the best poems ive read in a while....it read like a song.
I dont have the words to say what feelings this brought up in me, feelings from a long time ago when i too was in a place like that pit of despair and was with a girl who still hasnt come out of that sad place but who I pray for every day, I just want you to know that your beautifuly sad writing really touched me today.
thank you for posting your words here, theyre truly a gift to us all.
