The warm tears
Swell, before they break
Leaving behind
A cool stream
Running down my face
Hiding the remnants, behind
The closed door
Just feet away
From all of life

Excellent piece, Doree! Heartbreak is so complicated. It shuts us down because it’s necessary but too long, and we stop feeling anything.

Thank you so much, Susi!
Thinking back my numbness lasted 35 years, when I “woke up” it hit hard, still working through things. ❤️
