Calm and Secure - Love Lost But Not Forgotten

There’s a point

It’s a step

Between falling and breaking and laying flat

Laying flat, broken in pieces

There’s a note

You can hold

That sounds but doesn’t feel

Like you’re happy to be alive

She holds in it

Like we hold it in

Until we’re too full to take in a breath

A translucent body that retracts when you reach for it

Pained at the touch and indifferent to love

Lays asleep to us all

Awake to her sadness

Why?

How could anyone be so cruel?

How?

How could anyone be so cruel?

Why?

How could anyone be so cruel?

How?

How could anyone be so cruel?

If I could only stay alive

Long enough

To stop feeling this way

To stop feeling this way
