The dust settles
Uneven levels
On top, Yellow and red petals
The crowd has gone away
Guess who has come out to play?
Little red devils
Its night
Silence
Reality invites itself in
Bonfire on the background
I feel the heat with no warmth.
Its true
3 things get better with age
Wine, authors and wood
The storm after the calm
Johnnie Walker
Is this alcohol or water?
No taste
Looking for an escape
I lost her
The thing about grief
is how the world
doesn't pause to wait.
Shit just keeps happening,
life keeps happening,
you want to recognize
how important
this person was to you
and pause..
but it's impossible.
You have to still show up.
They lied.
They lied when they said
"it gets better with time".
It doesnt.
It doesnt shrink
or decrease
or numb.
YOU have to be better
and bigger
so that you cant feel it as much.
