The thing about feelings is that

It's hard for me to keep them under control.

As the days go by, I find it hard

To keep hell from breaking loose.

And I don't want to get too attached

Or to let people come too close.


Why? That's the question that keeps haunting me to this day.

I don't know - that's my favorite answer

But it's not the truth. Alas, the wounds are saltier

Than ever, and just won't close

After all these years.


Blue wind swirling in the depth of my aching heart.

Cliché, I know. N'est pas Rimbaud qui veut.
