Never So Shallow
#WritcoPoemPrompt2
In the end it was just me and my thoughts,
A painful trap, long after you were gone. A distant reminder of a love that once raged like a hurricane, ripping through my spirit, the burn of a wild fire running throughout my veins. You loved me so madly that I went quite sane, my inner child, you did tame. Then in a flash, you discarded me like many of Tuesday's trash. Taking away from me my crown and sash, I may wilt like thy rose, but I have endured so much more pain from many, mightier, of men. I shall rise from the ashes, and escape the hell I'm within.
