Cresting the surface of the shallows

in poetry •  5 years ago 

Hey Friends,

Realization arrives in static waves
Cresting the surface of the shallows
We never seemed to move beyond
Dulled in the honeyed promises
Dangling I the hangman's snare
laced with a malformed hope
And the illusion of change.

I'm tired of writing love letters to the ghost of who we used to be.

Your Friend
