I tried to forget,
To remove the love stuck in
my heart.
A stray bolt, embedded
In soft flesh.
I tried to know the love I felt...
I feel.
To understand its core.
The intensity.
The resilience.
Now alien,
Unwanted.
Flagrant and indecent.
A love that taunts.
A love that won't be forsaken
                     won't be buried —
A love that doesn't understand
You're gone.
