anger tightens, and swells
thickening, coating the walls of her
heart
for she can't see anymore
in this darkened state of reveal;
feeling sorry for herself,
and feeling unaccomplished,
but, doesn't she feel that everyday?
so what could she be talking about.
only this pale memory of you,
will keep her,
keep her in the hands of warmth,
care smoothed beneath her.
---that is all she has to say.
