yeah, i got your note
By FadedBlues
yeah, i got your note, thanks
who
am i talking to...you're gone...long gone...
but, hell, i don't blame
you for wanting to run away
from this crummy apartment on the corner
of
Ramshackle st. & SucksBigTime blvd. .....
-~-~-~-~-
if i took all the good pieces of my past,
stitched them together,
i wouldn't have a rag big
enough to blow my nose with -~-~-~-~-
couple drinks'll put me to sleep tonight...
hey, that heart
you took with you, just
drop it in the nearest garbage can...
yeah, i got your note,
i nailed it to the cracking wall
so i could blow my brains out with it
every day

A unique take on a loss, the portrayal of knowing the best part kf you is gone, but yet not loathing the one who departed your side, it's intersting! Heart break comes, sadness is brought, suicide is the release! Great write!

Wow. The seeming careless acknowledgment, accepting the heartache, and the ending was just so raw.

No one can escape heart ache or heartbreak, but few more can write a poem about it as nicely as you did. The "stitched rag" image was just absolutely amazing. Thank you for posting this wonderful piece.

So elemental in its simplicity... almost zen. Pure and stark in its pain and honest. Great metaphor in the rag image!
