and there she is

widows-thrill
or devil's backbone,
some sort of specimen
hog-tied to the sediment

combs her hand
with nails bit past the quick
through her hair
til she thinks there's not one incongruent strand

dragging her feet
down the primrose path
off on the hard way into heaven

I know I'm good for something
I just haven't found it yet

she is a happy ending,
not everyone can wait for.

"It doesn't matter, she loves me as well"


- Spoiler alert: it mattered.

I forget what it was to kiss
the kind of kiss
that lasted for ever.

I remember embrace
embracing
a lover.

I now live
a fond farewell
the goodbyes until a forever.

I rid myself
of every shard,
every little piece
that reminds me of
you.
Knowing
one day;
there will be a me
put back together.
complete
and whole.
a me,
you have
never
touched before.

A hug
A smile
Even being noticed
Would be nice
