dear jiyun,


these days a torturous
image
rattles my head

being brought back
and forth
and
creeping in again
when it starts to go away.

you,

in a bed

weak, and hopeless

exhaling deep breaths
and
battling not to break

under the hardship
of your daily struggle,

how you manage to
get through a day

I wonder,

how do you deal with it?

I won't argue
I tried to ignore the truth

to convince myself
it's a lie

maybe a trick that my
brain's playing

wouldn't be the first time

but I cannot keep
shutting my eyes,

pretend I'm clueless

brush the thoughts off
wiping the
patches of ache that
the realization causes

cause it's a matter of fact

this won't change,
and I can't keep on running
away from it.

I want to visit you

it's been so long
and you're so far away,

to see if you're
courageous

willing to dominate
the battle
of your own
salvation
