A Cigarette Graveyard

An exercise in self restraint

To slip back into the bargaining stage

The stages of grief occurring at once

It's been months since we spoke

To suffer along a linear slope

Is it too much to ask?

Perhaps

The union we helplessly witness corrode

Is now a resemblance of rust

On my car where we sat

An exchange of laughs

An admission;

Your allergic reactions to cats

You gave me life

I gave you spite

But I gave what I could

Under the circumstances

You were misunderstood

On occasion mistreated

But never misled

& Now

I just miss you

Your poems are always so heartbreakingly beautiful. It's always bittersweet to read your writing. On one hand it's endlessly beautiful and wonderful to read. On the other hand it's so full of those heartbreaking feelings. But I'm so glad I get to read all of it.

Thanks for the support as always! To be honest, It's going to be weird when I'm not in a place to be able to write things that are such morbid in nature. I'm trying to get out of my comfort zone a bit and create things a little, eh lighter? I love your work as well BTW. Always very well constructed.
