Here I am ready for pick up
Thinking on my exes, then on the why's
create a few (para)graphs un-poetic
tonight I'm just giving up on the past
Wounds purposely with it's cold rhetoric
The last memory, the last look, the last
photograph you took, lives silently on
a background noise, to the hum of the earth
escape into the brain fog and are gone
For you promise world's, yet a straight answer
tripped up on semantics, never concede
That even though, it's been broken by time
It's always been exactly what you need
Something so damn humbling, about trusting
other human's with our untold feelings
About this poem
Sometimes to get two steps forward, you've got to take a step back
