Soaking in the Aftermath

A breakup nonet

My experience with loving you

has been absorbent, soaking wet.

Every emotion you spill

I overflow, your sponge.

I wring myself out,

every last drop

left of you

in tears.

Wrung.

About the Creator

Carson Stone

My lovely, hyperactive, perfectionist and overachieving brain is never at rest. And it's where stories, fears, memories, & potential scenarios all live but never let loose. I thought I'd let them out to breathe. Maybe some will enjoy them!
