I don’t: talk
Face2face
Make eye contact.
Why?
Everything I feel
Is here.
Honestly, at times
This is a cage…
And I don’t know
What I feel…
Most of the time
I feel nothing.
Somewhere around 17
I hit an ice age
Been pretty numb
Ever since.

We all have that one
Who tattooed her name
Across the front of our heart
Leaving an eternal memory
Prior to an eternal departure.
Thing is – I scratched
Out the name…
I didn’t want to recall
What it had said.
And now? Well,
I still have the pain
And no way to call it.
