Heartbreak Holidays
Christmas to me, is a time I so very want to be happy, but every Christmas brings destruction for me. Write a poem/prose piece on your experience with heartbreak during these holiday seasons, so that we may not feel alone.
Holly Days
Before the clock struck twelve
Rogue thoughts warred with heartbeats
Oh how you flirted with Fate
Keeping pace with the angels
Even as devils crouched at your feet
Never have my wings felt so clipped before
Having you rip out my tongue with those words
Elaborate lies I believed upon a time
All the deadly signs ignored
Remembrances now beat me to the ground
Tell me nothing more, I’m lost forever
