![]() Glitches and StitchesA Poem by Cobblestone TravelerAbandoned by you over a decade ago Released to the howling, nipping wind One would think that I would learn My trivial place in your darting eyes The faulty wires in my fluttering heart Jolt the senses and corrupt the signal Sending flashes across my optic screen Causing hollow hope and optimistic lies If only I had the power to extract you To burn you out of my memory chamber I'd reset my brain to accept actual love And see what it's like to be treasured And the driving force behind the twist Of the jagged blade, coated in poison Is the ease with which you left me Out of sight, onto the next pleasure While to this day, I continue to stitch These enchanted, unhealing wounds I've started the journey to find the cure The potion of closure and restoration I deserve to be considered precious I'm worth endless suns and moons Much more than your fizzled star In a distant, forgotten constellation © 2017 Cobblestone TravelerReviews
