The thorns slit you with your every move.
& you bleed a little from the wounds.
The searing pain that you feel.
Can you take it?
Do you now know how it feels?
The pain that I bore for you the whole while.
I kept it secret.
I hid it within me.
Pretending that it didn’t hurt.
& I’m watching you go.
Watching you move through the thorns that pierced you unmercilessly.
All I could do was pray & hope that you make it to your destination.
Despite the wounds you caused in me.
I watched in tears, helpless.
As you’re walking farther & farther away from me.
& I’ll turn my back & send you my love through this silence.
