ME
i perfectly know
i have been hurt
by her unreachable sunshine.
i was walking on the hot coals
of my personal hell,
living in the shadow
of the glimpses of heaven
i desperately reached out for.
and now you're still wondering if i made it.
i couldn't have done much about it,
but now i can sleep peacefully at night.
better late than never,
i have finally loosened
the tangled strings of my heart.
About this poem
If “Her” was about dwelling on the past lover, this poem answers to it through a mature and healed point of view.
