Blindsided

the comments were shocking

as the moment gasped and froze

slashed by

sharp swords

from a cold soul.

revealing

your image of me

never did match my reflection of you

sad face

broken heart,

how did I not know

through all our tears

just when I thought we were standing strong

with this unbreakable bond,

I fell ten thousand years

into this endless span of melancholy

no way out

this time around...

~ ohhhhhh... this is brilliantly done, alisa... the title is insightful and what follows is such a heartbreaking look at what some people do to us... and i found the concluding image so compelling that i nearly choked... because i know it so well... and when i was in it... i thought i had just died... and was a ghost who seemed visible to those around me... ~ it's incredible for me to witness your journey as a poet... and how you become even more skilled and even more sensitive over time...
