Embracing the Uncertainty//Poetry

Untangle

The imprint that you left on my heart,
has changed me into this person that I no longer recognize.
I've lost my ability to love and each time someone looks at me and throws me a smile, my heart aches and it reminds me of your treachery.
Numbness overshadows the pain and my mind begins to hunt memories of the person I once was.
And all I do is sit in a corner and try to fathom this horrifying emptiness you created in me,
The more I begin to lose myself in it the more I feel closer to my doom.
And despite all this my soul still longs for a second chance at happiness,
So I gather what is left of me and ask my demons to buckle up and untangle you from me.
