Clean Break

Folder: 
Lessons Learned

I’ve got no other choice

But to make a clean break,

Remove the stains left

On lusted-for skin.  



I must scrub your name

Off my heart, carved,

As a constant reminder  

Of what I can never be.



I must sever the ties,

Dissolve the memories

Of kisses smeared on

My now-forlorn lips.
