I fled

No trepidation or fear Of want or rejection Could hinder my Escape from your Clouded vision I am weary of Your daunting Heartless ways Once the pitter Patter of your steps Tandemly danced with My heartbeats of love Now tears rain where Sunbeams once rose Seeking the stars A cajoled existence I fled

Dear Kelli, I really loved how you encapsulated the raw emotion of escaping from a toxic relationship. Your words convey a sense of liberation and resilience in the face of heartache and betrayal. The artistic imagery of tears replacing sunbeams is especially poignant. Your poem serves as the importance of prioritizing self-care and leaving behind harmful situations. - Blessings, Daniel
