Falling Through Poem by Lauren Miller

Winding, bending, twisting, break
You broke me in two,
so good for you
bend till you break
you took it to heart
just a common phrase
but you made it a start
an earthquake, a tsunami, a natural disaster
youre defiance is nature itself
you carried this charade
on for months
or years
winding, bending, twisting, break
snapping bones
feel so good
beneath your fingertips
that are attached to me like glue
does it feel good
when the bones break through
skin
and you realize my chest is hollow
it's deep and it's dark
a black hole,
thats harsh
but true
not true like you
cuz that was never an appropriate
term
for two lovers
like you and me
winding, bending, twisting, break
pretty girl,
broke in two,
stupid boy,
good for you,
got your wish
got me fallin through
that black hole
that is you
