It woke me up
Switch my eyes open
I will remember that choice
Need to purge myself
Tell you
Say it to you
Even if it would be a year before you heard me
I vomit
My life in these lines
My body
My heart
That you chipped
Didn’t expect that years later
I would still be falling
Crashing through what I thought was rock bottom
Something solid to stand on
Build from
Didn’t know that you would look for me
That after filling myself over and over
I would pepper your marble heart
Your hidden self in lime stone
Always waiting inside
Still recovering
Still forgiving
Still waiting for you to find another
Way to chip until I come out your own
Spring 2012
Switch my eyes open

Didn’t expect that years later
I would still be falling
Crashing through what I thought was rock bottom

Still forgiving
Still waiting for you to find another
