Not One Tear [The “Queen Of Swords” Exemplified]

by Paul Tristram / November 27th, 2022

Trapped inside
a … flatlined…
Relationship
… is the
closest thing
to HELL…
that I can
Imagine…
gives me the
[Fucking]
HORRORS!
‘Emotional
Thrombosis’
… no
Sedative
for the Soul
… Escape…
is a Magical
word… full
to the brim
… of Promise.
I no longer
‘Pity’, ‘Wait’
… or re-open
Closed Doors
… my Heart
belongs to Me!
