Heavy Love

This love is heavy
it still weighs
on my goddamned
back.
It uses gravity
to keep me down.
I have been
unable
to stand
for some time now.
I can’t understand, darling
what was wrong
but you were always up to
something.

You’re always on my mind
I can’t escape
your absence.
It strains my soul
to move
sometimes.
But it was just a game
that you played,
sweet, sweet little child.
Don’t give yourself away,
little girl.

It is time to
rise.
It’s time
that we spill everything
onto the floor
and let it break.
Dancing gloriously
to the sound
of it shattering.

This could have been something
this could have been that one
thing.
So let us spiral outwards
let us awake
and release every single
mistake.
I’ll get the bastards
to run,
I’ll make
the
bastards
run.
