I want to write it
I know what wonders it can do
To paint with words
That flow fresh into rainless rifts
Becoming resplendent rivers
Like before…
Before
the splits
the splits
the splits
If I could I would fill them with water
I know what wonders it can do
But erasure is a measure
For not just one but two
Water can only fill the rifts,
Beneath, they will remain
Eroded by worded beauty
Only deepening the pain
What’s left on the surface
Is prettier, it’s true
But what true beauty can be left
When the splits have become you?

I’ve written a proper thank you and acceptance post. I’m fairly sure it’s against the rules with these things to re-nominate someone who nominated you, but I would have put you on my own list of nominees too if I could have! Whoever nominated you made a great choice. Thank you again!!
