Trying to find the words that will mend the hurt To smooth the pain to render wisdom and understanding into a soft salve to rub onto the open wound
Wincing as you turn away reaching out for you but recieving a single, over the shoulder glance and a slight wave
as my stomach tightens into knots, several bound together, squeezing the life out of me the vivacious thing that once made me as colorful as an Andy Warhol print
Smiling with joy twisting with sadness oh what a tangled Massive web we weave
