bitter blue pill

bitter blue pill

A Poem by highonwords



for desolate hearts,
bitter blue pills of joy
hard-bitten on the edges

bottomless rain,
on a teardrop face,
to wash away what is not there

you, momentarily missing,
since you last went
when you first came

Great juxtaposition! Metaphors seeping in wisdom as the heart falls.
