hurt – The Messy Middle 🖤

Shop Closed.

White rose,

kiss on the nose,

emotionally naked, no clothes,

fell in love with hope,

ended up alone,

shop closed.

–S.

I was imploding on myself when we were together.

I thought you couldn’t see what was happening to me,

I took your blindness as a small kindness,

but your silence felt like sirens.

–S.

All of this shit gets heavy.

I could fill up the back of a chevy.

I could use a pick up,

a lift up.

All of this shit gets heavy.

It could overflow a levee.

I could use a hand,

in the flooding.

I thought it was real,

and it wasn’t.

–S.
