I held it together for so long;
too many changes at once
too many goodbyes
Defeated.
I come undone at the seams.
I cannot find my feet.
like running on the spot,
but stationary
all at the same time.
I am a puppet,
submitting to the ocean
the ebb and flow taking me.
Pulling in all directions
I am lost
I am empty.
Why does everybody leave?
I let go
and I cry
the tears will not subside
the saltiness rolls down my cheeks
again
and again
and again
and hits my lips.
I taste pain
hurt
sadness
and doubt.
Why couldn’t we stay?
I am the Winter’s storm
and you are the Summer’s sun;
two that will never exist as one.
