Memories of you flood my mind
Every single time my eyes close.
I thought perhaps I could leave you behind,
But even now, I envision you when I doze.

Thinking of you with anyone else
Is a stab wound to the chest;
The words you once said still trigger my racing pulse
And cause me to nearly go into cardiac arrest.

I am drowning in the flood of memories
Which combine to form an ocean so cold and blue;
I am drowning in painful thoughts—
I am drowning in you.
