A Poem for When my Heart Aches
Dear me,
The scars show your past mistakes
The lies, the bellowing sobs
With make-up draining off your face
In the mist of your despair
The world is relentless
But there is something you should know, my darling
Life is made up of moments
The laughs
The tears
And the fears
The trip to grandma’s house
Young love
Traveling
And most importantly
The unravelings.
Seeing people’s purity
That they behold
With long night conversations
About things that mean the most
And when you laugh so hard
Unshed tears begin to form
Because these are the moments that you live for.
