mysteries
left unsolved—
scattered like ashes
across the floor,
like tracing smoke
to find the arsonist
who burned it down
to bury regret.
the evidence runs deep.
and the mirror
can’t lie
any longer.
he floors the pedal,
gives it his all—
but the past
clings like fire
in his rearview.
one last getaway.
just one more line
to cross—
because crossing them
is all he’s ever known.
he’s spent his whole life
living a lie.

i don’t know
why i allow
you to step
into my life.
i’ve fought
so long
for peace—
you walk right in
like you’ve got
the right.
you got me
feeling stuck
in place.
i waived the flag,
called a truce—
but instead of
stillness,
you chose
the chase.
what do you want,
anyway?
i spent so long
trying to figure it out—
but it’s still
the same lines
on a different day.
i don’t know
why i let you
circle back
again,
when all you do
is skirt the truth
and keep me
in your game.
