After

I can only share the poetry I have written when it doesn’t hold the same power over me as they once did when I first wrote them. Here’s the first of many I have let go of.

The battle with yourself after heartbreak is the hardest

Your view of yourself has been tarnished

No one to be there through the screams

Only place you feel comfort is in your dreams

Repeating again and again “it’s not what it seems”

Coming back to reality is what I need

Away from the fantasy I had for us

Back to building myself with no fuss

My dignity, self esteem and trust

Gone.. just like that..

I’m almost in a rush

To get back to me, the me before us.
