#unencumbered
She once held my face like I was her world, Now her words cut deep, like daggers unfurled. She looks at me now with disdain in her eyes, What was once treasured, now she despises. I see stuff sometimes, each one like a blade, Saying this situation makes her spirit fade. Not from the place or somewhere, but from me, I know— A reminder of the love she let go. A person who sees me a disdain, needs to run far away, That every corner of a place brings her dismay. But it's not the streets, it’s what she can’t bear, The ghost of who I was still hanging there. I feel it all—the whispers, the weight, The way a person rewrites love into hate. That silence screams louder than any blow, Crushing the heart that once made me glow.

Shattered Reflections
:: _There is place in my mind Where my thoughts can wander freely, Once they stop inspecting themselves So very very __CLOSELY__; A place where they can dance Naked around the living room, Unencumbered by attention To detail, to the opposite of detail, To the opposite of the opposite of detail._ : _The tricky part is that to find this place I must get lost looking for it; Only ever realising that I was there Once I am no longer where ...Intention meets in-attention..._ ::
