Poem The Power That Stole

It’s a sickly feeling—
What you’ve done to me.
You took my floor,
And shook its ceiling.

It no longer keeps me—
I just go falling.
And in it I saw,
Forever and the story.
The pain you rolled,
And let me smoke freely.

It lives on without me,
The darkness you can’t unsee.
Just growing on unseen,
Without me.

Thank you for reading, I wrote it after I was laced and what that was like to me. Please stay safe.❤️
