Where do you go?

Where do you go?

A Poem by Karleem Johnson

Where do you go?

When something happens that shakes your world

breaks your world,

that crushes you into a dark dark hole,

that eats your mind and steals

your joy,

that seems to hit you

in the dead of your soul?

What do you do

when the one you'd always go to,

is in fact the one hurt you,

is the one that cut you

to the bone?

How can you forget it,

when the words rattle around

in your skull,

and appear in vivid detail with

every lull,

when nightmares plague

you with what might've been

and you're way too

familiar with this particular sin?

Why would it happen

if the one that you love

loved you?

Is there something that you

didn't do?

Is it because of that

which you couldn't do?

Where do you go?

Well you have definitely caught my attention. I love your writing style and the way it seems so natural, rather than forced like some writing can be. I look forward to reading more of this soon!
