A poem - I don't want to write about you anymore.

3 months ago · 4 · Poetry, +1

I don’t want to write about you anymore.

The pages drown with words as my heart

Spills messily onto the page

And as my tears blot the ink that writes to you

In an act of rage, the page tears

The canyon created on the paper flows deeply

and strong are the walls that line it,

As the page behind Shines through

The neat lines and sentences were abruptly and ruthlessly

Mutilated.

As if the tightrope that connected us was severed,

And we plummet to the bottom of the pit in my heart.

I don't want to write about you anymore.

The words oppose us

As they are a force that is eternal

And they laugh at mortality, when we cry.
