my head pounds
& my hand shakes
I don't even know
what to say

this is your aftermath

you hit my shores
with such force
homes decimated
children displaced

you took my beauty
to make it your own
my teen angst queen
still taped to your wall

but I am destroyed
homeless without you

this is your aftermath

Author's Note: I wrote this a few months ago when I found out he slept with someone else.

the names of the displaced children were Sincere and Paris.

the teen angst queen is Tori Amos.
