No, I Am Not Above It

sad good byes
are hard for me
my fingers stick
to things I do not
want to let go of
lingering my skin
aches from remembrances
and my mind
won’t let me escape
drowning in thought
but there is
a place where
I float

in salt

I have yet to read ANYTHING from you that has not 'stuck with me'~
This does ... and for that I thank you AGAIN~
