It’s been a really tough week. A week of endings. It’s hard to feel grateful when the heart aches. I find myself losing words. This is the time I usually turn to writing poetry because for some reason, it helps me focus my feelings. I am thankful I have that catharsis.
molten lament
unapparent in words
deliberate
so maybe wasn’t an option
sometimes love only goes one way
an ending too bright
too startling in its clarity
one infinite flash
fades to shadow
unrevealing
my masochist lingers there aching
for answers
already lies
best to untangle and float
through unthinking
now heart paste smeared
on paper for him to see
how thick my pain is
