Words
By HadassahDare
The words slink in and out of my ears
but slam into my heart and
fall into my essence
You skipped on out of the door
and desperation
settled over me
and took refuge in the dark.
I crawled to the
center of the universe
and fed it my salty tears,
your voice
floated in my mind,
peeking and poking at my very being,
teasing
me into oblivion
and I suddenly felt the rejection
anchor my
heart to the floor.
I know you just said goodbye
and walked
out on our life,
my love, and your courage.

Poetically posited and developed to a natural, if sad, ending. Thanks for sharing this slice of life.
