Eclipse

After Romance

By OneWithPenPublished 2 years ago 1 min read

Effervescent. One

Call from her red lipstick, white teeth, and crooked smile

Lie to me about the future, though

I intend to surpass the strong feelings in my memories

Pain protects my future and de-limits me from my past.

Solitude I had sacrificed and the unrecognized

Efforts to better myself and our future, redact history, and destroy madness. We deserve better.
