May 2019
there's a fist clasped
around my heart
and I could feel my heart
beating rapidly
against my ribcage

the words leaked out
in between my teeth
and my tongue
shoveled them out
onto your heart

but what you did to him
and to her
to them
and the spewing boiling words
did to me

I've been seared
long enough
we've been fighting
more than
long enough

as the words spill
flooding around us
I float away
you streaming after me
tears brink at the bank

you shove
everything
I ever gave you
and tell me
not to lose them

and I walk away
knowing
that I just broke
both our hearts
broken

but tightness
in my chest
didn't dissipate
nor did the tears
evaporate

I lost
what you gave me
but I still have
the pain wrapped up
in my heart

and with time
I will begin to weave
it back together
but for now
it will stay broken
