The pain she'd caused;
the confusion
the doubt
the confusion
the doubt
the abandonment:
A razorblade buried deep
A razorblade buried deep
in his heart.
Still, she smiled.
Flash forward: open heart surgery,
the blade is removed
though the scar remains,
dried blood after the battle.
Eyes opened,
slate cleaned.
Her realization dependent
on his three words.
Flash backward:
"You're worth it."
Still, she smiled.
Flash forward: open heart surgery,
the blade is removed
though the scar remains,
dried blood after the battle.
Eyes opened,
slate cleaned.
Her realization dependent
on his three words.
Flash backward:
"You're worth it."
I enjoyed this poem! it was very deep and meaningful and it makes me wonder what inspired you to write it. i enjoy the imagery of the surgery and the battle :)
