The verge of a depression
Feels like an economic recession
Its the ascension
Before the descension
A slow mental digression
And my therapist says:
"While we're in session,
Do you have a confession?"
And I say, "No,
It can't be depression."

When I saw you again
You tasted like bitter wine
The faintest recollection
That you were once mine
It's the "could haves"
The "should haves"
That leave my heart in halves
With you I had my crescendo
And like all music
You found a new tempo

In an age of strong female heroines
Be the small little hobbit
For there is greatness
In simplicity

I could never understand
What could force someone
To harm their sacred vessel
To take a knife to their canvas
Painting it the deepest red
But then again
My skies are blue
And theirs is gray
So maybe I don't understand
But I want to try

A delicately wrapped package
Was left on the steps of my abode
Waiting for him to come by
As I peeked out my window
But no one came
And the package lay unopened
And untouched

A heart made of ice
With no cold there is no warmth
I embrace the snow

Sunlight through the trees
Cherry blossoms in full bloom
He is my meadow

How could I leave someone behind
Who left me empty-handed and blind?
Why would I crawl back to that space
Where hell had its place?
Who would I even call
With the phone hanging on the wall?
What sins did I commit this time
Was it my chastity or speaking out of line?
When do I have that sweet release
As I usher in the age of peace?
Where do I find my relief
When it is with my abuser I sleep?

I apologize for actions that are not mine
As I grip chocolate and roses in hand
Whispering the words-
I am sorry

A manipulator is a thief
Who steals your joy
Before it was even yours to begin with
