Poetry: How Do I

How do I falsify joy
When my heart screams in pain
Wondering where all the love went
As it beats bloody in vain
Tell me how do I keep breathing
While pretending I’m not drowning
My insides a swirling tempest
And I the lone sailor it’s surrounding
Show me how do I curl a smile
As my hands bite into broken glass
Fragments of our memories stained in my blood
Desperate for them not to pass
Please…
How do I just forget everything
When you became that to me
When you’re my sunshine in the dark
How do I see
Seriously…
How do I…
How do I..?
How can I?
