On a Night So Damp

How do you do it?
Break me so?
How do you love me?
I don’t know.
And I also don’t know
Why you want me.
Is it to hurt me?
Is it to haunt me?
And tell me why you
Leave me like this,
Reaching out to nothingness,
Dullness infiltrating
Crystalline eyes.
On a night so damp
The tropical plants swelter
Around me.
Their moist leaves
Caressing my tearstained face,
Struck with understanding
And resignation to a Fate
Far worse than Hell.
Understanding what my life
Will be: living each day
Without you.
Dreaming of you incessantly.
Day and Night
Night and Day.
Why is it so?
I dare not ask,
For fear my sentence
Will be made even more
Unbearable.
Planted on my knees,
In the muddy earth, my
Bare feet crumpled
Beneath me,
My bloodied dress
Swirling around my waist.
Violated once again.
My head fallen forward,
One arm reaching towards
Infinity.
The other, grasping emptily at
The earth,
Shutting my eyes violently
To stop the memories from
Surfacing,
I’m screaming out your name.
Sobbing out your name.
