I heard you
Yet to your eyes
I am a knocked silhouette

🪶

Emotional wounds
My nerves system
Compromised

🪶

The empty tin cans
Lined up
Rows dented

🪶

Hollow
Your words
Trying to apologize

🪶

Cyan colors
Beautiful
In tears

🪶

Keeping score
No
I am better

🪶

I sink in
Peppermint tea
Trying to escape you

🪶

Sinking
Drowning
What are you

🪶

Stolen
Moments
I could’ve shone without you

🪶

I still keep my
Head up high
From messed up soil

🪶

From ashes
I can still
Feel

🪶

Viridescent
Yet sorrow
Consumed

🪶

Pea green
My hardest efforts
Unappreciated

🪶

Will I rise
Above this effluvium

🪶

I am weary
My soul’s edges
But I have dreams

🪶

Let me soar
An eagle of my own
Whether with you
Or without you

🪶
