A poetry book about a breakup;
the breakup of two girls
two best friends.
The poems tell the tale of a toxic relationship and influence the author felt and undergone around her supposed friend.
It starts with,
She’s a good girl, loves her mama
Loves Jesus and her country too.
She’s a good girl, crazy about Meyer
Loves cat and her boyfriend too.
It’s a long day living in Tempestry,
Misses her father in the freeway lay. Running through the yard,
Her life under the umbrella cracked. In the middle of the rain,
The clouds mounting her glare. But when the blue sky came,
She found herself in the churches laid.
Now she’s free falling out, into nothing.
She wants to leave this world behind, for a while,
and her boyfriend too, this, beginning of it all.
I met her first with the shiny smile, and a glint of glee
in her eyes that I never leave her, a second,
a moment in judgement never came, fast friends we were
Now I see her as she were: broken, in search of
Fulfilment. Same here. // To you, who is as she was
at some point, at some aspect, the prospect
lingers, beckons you to hinder life’s great
heartache in the limber of
passion unknown, unbridled.
Stay.
