I haven't
missed you..
Not since cold August
rain fell
on my head, as if
I weren't there..

And oh, how I bled for you,
until I felt faint and inanimate.
I became a toy,
clawed
and stepped upon,
I was never antique I
lacked quality.

The last time I saw you,
you were still as pale as
I remembered..
Still
a heap of uncomfortable bones.
I wondered, to myself,
why had I ever
loved you so completely?

I waited so long
for the planets to align,
the stars to shift.. I'd hoped,
and so selfishly..I'd cried.
You never held me adequately,
and I am frail still.

I know now, though,
that I was not wrong in leaving you.
I have been blessed, finally,
by running away
from my mistakes.

Oh yes, this... this speaks to me, loudly.

Nice to read you

"I was never antique
Ilacked quality."

Well, if this was true, somewhere along the road you have acquired it.
