R&a

i was born AIV

but when i met him, i became Robert and adrian

i rearranged the alphabet to put him first

Capitalized his name to make him whole

in the process i  bit my tongue with His teeth

swallowed my worth with His spit

His ego filled the king-sized bed

so i made myself small

eventually, i was nothing

He fell out of love between breakfast and lunch

He said He still loved me, but i wasn’t enough

so i tried to turn nothing into something

filled the empty space between my lungs with His broken promises and carved myself hollow

until i was just His shadow

The day I met him a house became a home. Today, it is a grave.

Our love is a half-buried corpse in the foundation, and the I do’s we spoke not too long ago rattle the walls. The forever we promised became the saddest eulogy I’ve heard.

We are held captive by a “For Sale” sign in the front lawn, and the rings that united us are now handcuffs.

He has moved on, but my heart is held down by the weight of the white gold. No one warned me that wedding bands grow heavier when the love is gone.

They say music is a universal language.

An orchestra can tell a story without words. 

And while a cello is great, my  favorite instrument has always been his heart.

The organ that pumps blood through his veins is the composer of my favorite songs.

It told stories of love and lust when he kissed me.

During a thunderstorm, it played a serene lullaby. 

When I was upset, I would lay my head on his chest. His heartbeat was a song that comforted me.

But the song has changed. The rhythm is not the same. His heart now beats for something or somebody else.

His heart now plays songs written in past tense. Melodies filled with sorrow and regret.

The music that once made me feel like I was flying is now the reason I am drowning.

I proposed with a book, which was the chronicle of my love life.

I thought he was the grand finale. The last entry. I thought the book was completed, finally.

But it turns out that he was just another chapter. And that kills me not only because I thought my book had a happy ending, but also because he means so much more than that to me.

He is not a poem in a chapbook, he is an entire library. And even then, I don’t think there’s enough pages and words to describe the many ways I love him.

I'll kiss a bottle of wine to forget what his lips taste like.

I'll get drunk to forget the way his eyes lit up when he smiled.

And I'll mourn him as if he were dead, because only then will this make sense.

We promised to love each other until death, but he is alive. He chose to walk away.

Now I have to purge the touch of his hands from my body and exorcise his love from my heart.

I'll amputate the memories with another man, but the phantom pain will remain.

I knew it was over.

But I kept asking if he was okay hoping to get reassurance that his apathy was just in my head.

That the knot in my stomach was made up.

That he was only listening to breakup songs because he liked the melody, not because they spoke what was in his heart.

That he didn’t say “I love you” last night because he forgot.

But with every answer he gave me, the more my heart sunk.

Because he said everything was fine while his eyes shouted that he was done.

The house that once was our home turned into a 2,000 square feet grave.

He said he doesnt love me the way I love him.

So now we are stuck in cement.

With the life we could of had burried in the back yard and my tears paiting these walls a darker shade of gray.

Nothing will ever be the same.
