Blindside

Blindsided again in the dark
Pain so hard, a loss so deep
I wrap my arms around me tight
Trying to hold my world together.
It feels like it did some time ago:
Shattering, breaking, falling apart
All around me. I hold in my cries
As everyone sleeps, and I feel
The hot tears burn pathways
Down my face, pooling in my eyes,
Sliding down my cheeks, or into
My ears, where the hot liquid cools
And I am left feeling frozen. Again.
