Inside Out

Beside myself
Scattered matter
Inside outside
And upside down
Pull together
Mustered tether
Face the mirror
There is no you
Where you once stood
Darkness now stays
My wooden heart
Bemoans your place
Fall from grace
Stumbled
Tumbled
Jarring
Scarring
I’m reeling
Still feeling
This hole you left
My gaping chest
Weep my soul
For ever more
I’m sorry for
All that was lost
Nowhere to go
Tomorrow
Is borrowed
Today
Is pain
This girl
Never
Will love
Again
