my everything ended with you
the past spreads, future ebbs away
our meanings now conjoined, renewed
but over like light fades from day
afraid to write these flowing lines
the secrets, spoken, brittle make
fragility clings like the vines
of sadness that my sweetness take
but everything begins anew
the vastness suturing to slake
feelings now reformed, half-true
to numbness that the madness fakes
invades my mind, i laugh & cry
my oaths are broken, look away
civility turns blinded eye
to cover, slightly, shades of grey
