day one

wiping tears away from swollen eyes

yet still they leaked through

a waterfall of pain dripping onto the ground

drip drip drip

day two

tossing, turning, crying in bed

hugging knees tight to chest

a scab in the soul that

seemed to be unhealable

day five

swallowing the pain that

threatened to explode

into tears and sleepless nights

i can do this

day ten

breathing heavily

mind in a frenzy

it’s 2:00 am

can i still do this?
