Rid Myself of You

Submitted by Kristen H. on Tue, 2024-02-13 18:34

I've ripped off my skin
I can still feel your touch

I've bitten off my tongue
I can still taste you

I've poured acid in my eyes
I can still see you

I've busted my eardrums
I can still hear you

They say time heals all wounds
I call bullshit

Nothing can cleanse me
From your sins

I do not know what to say... you put it right out there for all to see. Plain and simple and to the point. I always enjoy your poetry.

Sometimes you just have to say it like it is.
