Wine Filled With You
Written by Maryam Alsammarraie from Russell Sage College — Troy — NY
Dozing off into
a world,
a world that isn't mine.
Your world.
Sunny days with
rainy clouds.
A candle in a
blinded room
type of world.
A world filled with
WINE poisoned wine,
the type of wine we drank together.
I still drank it,
the wine
knowing that it would
KILL ME.
Assumed you would
save the little girl
inside me
But you watched,
I cried,
looking at you
I dreamed.
I sobbed,
not because I wanted
I had nowhere else
to go
but to you
just you.
You were ME
and I was
YOU.
Still, I close my eyes
with love
as you
watch me
DISAPPEAR.
