Looking back
on everything that
happened so fast
I have now realized
I was forcing logic upon
a situation that made no sense.

I was blaming you
because the truth
of facing the reality
that it really all does
fall down on me.

You were the one to come back into my life
I was the one to believe all the lies
this may not be the most beautiful way
but all things I have long needed to say.

You Broke Me.
Leaving me scarred, when the dust settled
I gathered in the pieces of myself
My one remaining standing
At best, fragmented.
A Crooked Smile.

Then you come crashing through
obliterating and consuming it all
quite like the perfect storm
making me fall
and once again
the pain makes me.

I now see
and feel
and know
enough to never look back.

To have your wildest dreams spread out in front of you
Not wanting to know, what is sure to come
Hoping for the best, giving benefit to doubt
Everything so close you can practically taste it
Then all in one night,
ripped out of sight,
instead making light
of your worst nightmares.

I wouldn't ever wish that on my worst enemy...
But I would wish that on you.
just working through my writer's clog.
