Sometimes it makes sense to cry
To let everything go
To feel the weight fall off your shoulders
Like rain slipping down the branches
Of dying trees
To sit down and sob
And let yourself fall apart
Piece by piece
First my fingers go
They reach for what isn’t there
Then my toes slip off
Followed by my feet
Walking towards a future that doesn’t exist
My arms go next
To go hold him one last time
Knees leave, too
They kneel for a God that
I’m not sure exists
I say goodbye to my shoulders
They are for someone else to lean on
Then the rest of me melts away
My body turns into water
Into tears
Because that’s all that i am
My brain goes last
With broken thoughts
Lost memories
Forgotten love

Finally i am whole

Because i am broken
