ForeclosureA Poem by tysonI asked to know how she felt. For closure. She
wouldn't say. She didn't want to say. She didn't want to be the bad guy to
break my heart. She didn't want to be responsible for breaking me apart. She
said, 'you always want closure, it's not fair, it’s not that easy, that’s not
always what it's all about.'
But, you don't start a book, and then, just not finish
it. You don't start a film, and then, just not finish it. You don't live, and
then, just not die. Closure is essential to the fabric of human life. No stone
left unturned, unless too heavy, boring, or hard. No dish left uneaten unless
it leaves a s**t, sour, taste in your mouth.
So the closure I conclude from her evasive nature, is
that, I am the book she started but hated. I am the foul taste in her mouth. I
am the bad film she regrets seeing and halfway, walked out. I am the stone that
became too heavy, boring and hard.
I sunk my own ship. The captain always goes down. It's
hardly fair that I also expected her to drown.
