PostPoems Be Artistic. Be Creative. Be Inspired!

It was one of those experiences that hurt so much it's difficult to comprehend or place in the mind. You become confused where to store it ;so, naturally, it pops up at the most random and unexplainable times. A reminder of this burning, paralyzing heartache that refuses to make sense no matter how many times it re-appears out of hiding. Just a reminder of how strong and fiercely I once allowed myself to love and that encompassing dull ache at the core of my being when I realize I will never allow myself to love like that again. Even when love has reappeared and begs to be allowed back in, I cannot budge. Romantic love now eludes me. I have lost my faith in a feeling once so prominent and intoxicating. And he, my executioner, receives the attention, for being the lover who deceived.

This permanent scar,
imprisons me.
