Letting go

It felt as though the stars were burning into my soul.
My mind was leaving all the worlds of sanity.
My eyes no longer sought the comfort of your light.
And my hands, they were numb to your coarse touch,
They were callused with hurt, and bruised with anger.
My emotions were lost in a sea of tears
by which my own cries of salvation had drowned.
My heart was forever disfigured,
with only the remainder of an eternal aching
that traveled in an excruciating perpetual cycle.
Letting go of you was the end itself.
But i did it.
