May We Forgive Poem by Paulina LozadaCortez

She pulled me towards her, embracing me
As if to strangle my inhibitions.
She did not speak.
And neither did I
Because such love could not be spoken
And was more beautiful when Silent,
With words left unsaid.

Sentiment.

Oh, sentiment,
That's all it is;

"A chemical defect found in the losing side of the brain",
That's all it'll ever be.

What an ironic thing to think
In a situation such as this;
Where love and loss entangle themselves in knots,
Left for the less fortunate to untangle.
