I stare now at a door slam closed,
my body barely composed
staring at the result of my stupidity
my breath suspended and trapped,
understanding now replaced the intelligence I lacked
my eyes no longer clouded by illusions but facts
I will no longer bite my tongue or choke on suppression.
Nothing ever ends poetically,
I just turn the anger and pain into poetry
scouring a silver lining within this cold clarity
instead of what I hoped may be.
I was different then
but I promise to myself now
this will never happen again,
blood spooling onto the ground around me
the result of
holding onto the shreds of somebody
who no longer exists
someone I no longer know or recognise.
a room now filled with emptiness
now an abyss,
their presence replaced by greys mists
which will fade with time
