the most difficult pieces — a poem about bitterness after a breakup
the most difficult pieces are
that you've made me
the enemy
that you've torn down
everything
that we're only
memories
where i thought
we were
family
that your blood smears
the sunlight,
no salve coating
the night
that you only see
the times
i left,
not the years
i stayed
that you acknowledge
the endings
but never
the reasons
that you choose
drama
over
peace
that you chose this
over me
