Wrote a letter today and threw the fucking thing away...
Wrote another letter today just to throw the fucking thing away.
Walked right up to your door
Just to turn around and run away
I see you through the window
Knowing there's nothing left to say
I begged and pleaded my way through every tragedy
Left in anger and bargaining energy
Sometimes love is destroying yourself
And never asking why
Sometimes love is destroying yourself
And never hearing
"I'm sorry" is all I wrote
A thousand times
Signed in tears
Replaced with years
Goodbye
Goodbye
Good bye

Dear RMV,
The raw intensity of this poem is amazing. While a difficult subject on which to comment the honesty and reflection behind it is very relatable. Excellent writing. H🌷

Thank you, very much. Coincidentally, I was flooded with a rush of emotion while writing it. I was going to call it "Grief", but felt it more embodied the stages of grief. Thank you, for reading :)

This is really powerful and beautiful. It's a theme that's been covered many times, in many ways, but you put a unique spin on it.
