Souvenir by V. Blakei believe you think your honesty
prevents you from toying with emotions,
but admission isn't absolution
and you have walked quite far enough
under that banner.
let me be the one to tell you
that i was more than know,
and not what you say:
there is no coming back
from this, there is only dust--
visible now that my things
are gone. 10/20/2015 Posted on 10/20/2015 Copyright © 2025 V. Blake
