"I'm thankful for every break in my heart. I'm thankful for every scar, some pages turned, some bridges burned, but there were lessons learned."


White chalk choking
out white dust as
she drew flat
lines, smooth as a
paved drag; straight shot
up but numbers burned
down,
now,
sunken bowls unveil her
beauty, pitted; our
truth, collapsed and
cored. Her own voice
echoes, battering the
deepest hollows of her broken
body. Stay so safe, un-
severed
soul.
