Shattered Dust

I am over you in all the big ways that is for sure I am over you in all the small ways too if you don’t count going to my knees with each moment …that I breathe all of me my life turned around over and over by you and your lies how could so much of me mean so little …to you it is not enough excuses seeking forgiveness for the unforgiveable what I have always held to be true betrayed my very soul my trust in me shattered to dust …trust who now IRISH

FYI of anyone who reads my work....most is all based on fictional characters and/or events. I think if I had lived out the roller coaster curves of my poems I would be in constant therapy. My life has taken some hits, to be sure. But, I pride myself on being able to write from a perspective that captures the reader with the feeling I am writing to and about them and their lives. It was when I learned how to write in that style that (I think) my poetry actually started to become stronger work.
