Cutting off layers of unwanted skin,
Coming undone inside of one’s self.
Float beyond water’s edge, cry silently.
Forgive the world for swallowing it all,
Every single dream of a lover’s kiss.
Ignore subliminal messages of the heart.
Destroy any ounce of emotional sanity,
Come quietly into your own open arms.
Shrug off the hands of those that would wonder.
Lie to yourself, cry to yourself, and forget that
Any touch of another, reminds you of silver.
Yes, that's heartache. It made my own heart ache with the way you explained it...beautifully captured..
Yes, this is deep and the imagery is sublime. Read mine - How Long is Forever - Adeline
