Tonight I put all away
Hopes held past dates
With loud feelings wrapping tightly
Silence is what I hear when big deals settle down
Emotional bullies with strengthened pulleys
Waving hands directing misleading snapshots
Picture figuratively an adhesive struggle
Until figurative finally figures it out
I’m not stuck
Could and should pull away
Full recovery just past these darkened halls
Halfway home with tears all gone
No surprises here and any miracle talk should be killed
All flowers dead, bent, scents sealed.
