Love doesn’t mean
I stay broken where you left me.
You were that winter storm
and now that the skies are clear
I am unshaken
unremoved,
reborn from the wreckage.
Your words?
They pierced
and they were stuck with me for a
long time.. but;
I have let go of it all,
the ache, the hope
the thousand what ifs
that chained me to your ghost
I have dropped it all
like dead weight from my shoulders :)
I have burned the bridges
drowned the ashes
and salted the ground
where your shadow lingered.
Your hatred?
It used to crack the walls inside me,
Now it just brushes past
like wind against stone
I don’t flinch
I don’t feel
This is not rage
but this is just absence
You are nothing in my chest now
no flicker, no flame
just frost on a name I don’t say anymore!
I do not glance back
Not for a memory
Not for a may be
Not the girl I used to be
when I still flinched at your name.
I have left you behind- forever,
No pause, No softness, No Glimpse.
