have to find. a. new. word.
for ache.
i've used it all up
i've worn. myself. out.
if i had a nickle for all the breaths
i'd wished. i. could. stop.
if i could just swallow
what you left. on. the. ground.
if i could feel anything
but the hell. i. feel. now.
if there were some edge
i could simply. walk. off.
maybe then it would cease
{the punch in my guts}
the hole. you. ripped. out.
if there were some way to forget
erase. your. mouth. and. your. verbs.
if i could. only. sever.
this tether. to.
you
