debris. (2014)

Thoughts skating, darting

through the filth and fog

betrayal and disappointment

dim the escaping light

fighting the flesh

struggling to understand

captivated by feeling empty

I gave too much.

And the remnants of

whats left behind

mean so little

debris so hard to bear.

Letting go never being

my strength-

bitterness still not

my deepest flaw.

I just need a breath

to rest in here.

A wisp of fresh to fully

let go of

all that remains

a fragmented piece

to which I cling,

a rescue in

the fold.
