Detachment and Radical Acceptance-Started About Him, Ended About Me

Detachment Addiction Poetry

Author: Tricia L.

There is an
ACHE
a heavy-hearted feeling, I cannot equate anything toโ€ฆ

A shadow of sadness behind my smile as I mention your name
because of what
LIES
beneathโ€ฆ.

I try each second to engulf you with all the layers of
LOVE
my body can give to make this pain disappear from your beingโ€ฆ

I try to remain in SILENCE,

convince myself it is not thereโ€ฆ.
I try to welcome their presence… but they insist on remaining
HIDDEN

Small GEESE colored GREY trailing one another,
The BIG and small BLUE SKYY, seen below
Ostentatiously organic, RAIN drops in volume
A Representative special of its kind, with refined ingredients from The Capital City of Russia, stoic STOLI.
The FOREIGN UNCLEโ€ฆ PAVING THE WAY AND WAS THE ONE & ONLYโ€ฆ TIL THE OTHERS BECKONED TO BE PART OF THE SECRET

I try to
BLINK
them away, a figment of my imagination
They continue to
REAPPEAR
surprise, and catch me off guard

I try not to succumb into
TEARS,
to crumble in my vulnerability
To remain
STRONG, COURAGEOUS
I try not to buckle, I fell in heaps of sobs
I try not to continue in the evening
