    Time Event
    10:25p
    the sun
    unedited, written in 10 minutes, and probably totally emo. but here it is. my thoughts about the ending of my 1.5 year relationship, magically compacted into a short poem for your convenience.



    how does it devolve into anger?
    what was once the basis of our days
    what once woke us up with the piercing energy of beauty—
    “look, it’s the day!”
    sun fighting through the sheer green cloth

    what once held us upright
    with the calm grace of Virginia Wolfe
    a cup of tea just made
    soft footsteps on linoleum
    a quiet kiss

    how does a life become nothing?
    an opposite become the original?
    boxed in their own days—
    unable to get past something
    something
    wounds of guilt and betrayal
    blocking out the sun
