Freeverse – Broken Narratives

Thanksgiving

Thankful for all these raw and lovely words we spill so freely, even on the days when they don’t come so easily.

You’ll just regret it when I’m gone

And I refuse to let go.
Because this is how I’ll learn to heal:
With you by my side, teaching me how.

Together we bleed, we burn, and we bloom.
Unfurling our hidden wounds together after midnight.

You can be there when the sun shines
But at nightfall, you’re all mine

Something about you feels familiar
Like a memory of a dream I once had

But I didn’t hesitate before drinking her in
