there’s this gaping hole
in my heart
yet they never noticed I was
bleeding.
my heart bleeds
a mess of jumbled-up
sentences.
they tell me this
sadness is
temporary
yet I see it in their eyes
the
concern
as the therapist asks me about the past four years
as my heart bleeds
a mess of jumbled-up
sentences.
more medication, she says
as if chemicals and logic can cure
emotions
as if a pill can stop the bleeding
my heart bleeds
a mess of jumbled-up
sentences.
no words
can explain
my pain.
-Lucy
We were rising.
Like twin flames,
Dancing in the darkness,
Spreading warmth to the stars.
In my mind,
You were a star,
Radiating your astronomical light onto me.
Everything’s blurry
But I can’t stop writing
If I take my pen off the paper I’ll break,
I’ll shatter
I stop writing my heart will bleed rivers of words,
Words I can never say aloud
It’s been so long
Since I’ve seen your face
That I’m starting to forget
The color of your eyes
And the way you smile
But I’ll always remember
The way you cared
The leaves fall
