When 'Done' Isn't Strong Enough
by Christel CrewsShe is finished
with all of
you
There's a lack of understanding
nor does she care to
Grapple with the questions
that still
plague
her thoughts, One can only take so much
of the confusion
the frustration
the longing
the guilt
Maybe it is time
she shut every door
and started anew
What would that look like?
Her fear keeps
her
in a stationary state
but her heart can only twist
so far in each direction
back and forth is not healthy
can she run away
if only for a moment
to clear her
mind
and find the answer
she has been looking for
within herself
