Cold Turkey

This poem is based on a past relationship, how he just disappered from my life and it took a long time for me to get over that.

Filled with anger,

face to face.

We say our piece,

can't walk away.

Too much time invested,

too many emotions attached.

Tell me, what am I to do?

Our love lay in ruins,

and you claim your life, too.

I caught the words you threw.

They broke my heart

like a glass moon.

Cut myself on your roses,

bleed on your bed of thorns.

Found myself in an empty room,

lost without your arms.

My hear shut down without you.

My emotions went astray.

Like a chemical dependancy,

cold turkey is the worst way.

They broke my heart

"...like a glass moon.
Cut myself on your roses,
bleed on your bed of thorns.
Found myself in an empty room,
lost without your arms."

Such beautiful lines. Truly expressed emotion.

Keep penning.
