Replying to a comment on:
The Final Love (Free verse) by Roisin
I thought I had it all wrapped up
Heart snapped shut
The final love.
Like waking from deep sleep
a chest weight of dread
I realise the truth
That all stops now.
How can we try
to repair the welts of unrecordable pain
When everything is fading fast?
Even if we could banish this sickness for another day,
Another week spent safe and coddled;
It would end the same,
The pouring rain,
The choked chest weight
My mind snaps shut-
The final love.
