The change
November 13, 2018
Her tosses and turns all night tangle her black hair.
The mirror begins to collect dust.
She rots in the house all day
becoming bruised and moldy
as an aging peach.
Red wine is her life line.
She fights the flow that threatens to crawl down her face every day.
She’s shattered, a cracked mirror
cracking the hours when she tries to sleep.
Everything reminds her of him
the rain filling the gutters,
the wind in her hair like his breath,
the simple glance at her car keys
can fill the cracks.
tossing she turns, to find him there
and she’s found.

This poem is about a women who feels as if she has nothing to live for. Feels as if she is broken. Until she meets someone special who helps her see the light and find herself.
