let me down easy
not with silence
settling like dust
on everything we built
not with a door
closing so softly
I mistake it
for the wind
if you have to leave
leave like evening
slow enough
for the light to understand
tell me the truth
before it hardens
into stories
i’ll spend years
trying to untangle
I can survive
the clean edge
of honesty
it’s the dull blade
of maybe
the weight of almost
the unanswered room
that keeps drawing blood
so if my name
has grown too heavy
set it down
look at me
long enough
to remember
I was once
your favorite place
to arrive
then go
I won’t ask
the horizon
to turn around

Wow!!!! You are such an artist with words. I love this!
Thank you, Braden 🤗
You’re very welcome! 😉
Jennifer, this is absolutely amazing. No one is leaving when they hear this. you can hold a man in the prison of his own desire after hearing these words spoken to him. Mike
Thanks, Michael! You’re so awesome!
Anyone who would leave you is either insane, or they are just not thinking straight in that moment. You really are the complete package as a woman. You’re so hard working, gifted, kind, and embody the essence of beauty in every possible way imaginable. Don’t you dare ever forget you are a Queen! 👸🏻 Or I’ll have to kick your ass! 😉😂
Haha, no ass kicking needed! I’m still wearing my crown 👸🏻 but thank you for such kind words! Damn you’re so kind too!
You are a true poet and your use of words is so on point and with beauty attached
Thank you so much, such a kind thing to say 🙂
You’re very welcome and just stating the truth 🙂
