Mendings

one loss recalls another
and softens the heart
from the scabs of old hurts

but when silence greets
reconciliation

the only peace to be made
is within yourself

Baring the Soul

Self-evisceration by telling the horrible truths
Of oneself, hoping the listening party
Will understand that the hurtful actions
Do not come out of malice or indulgent pity
Euphoric to let go, outgrow the chains
But at the same time, hollowed out
Punctured into Swiss cheese
Circular tears in the aftermath
